96 Points – James Halliday | 98 Points – Andrew Caillard MW. Penfolds St Henri Shiraz 2022 is a benchmark of timeless Australian winemaking—rich, layered and gracefully powerful. First released in the 1950s, St Henri stands as a proud counterpoint to Grange, matured in large seasoned vats to preserve fruit purity over oak influence. The 2022 vintage shows satsuma plum, blackberry, blueberry and boysenberry wrapped in hints of dark chocolate, olive tapenade and baking spice. Luxurious yet balanced, it glides across the palate with seamless tannins and long, mineral length. Presented in a signature Penfolds gift box, this vintage embodies depth, stature and finesse—true to the St Henri tradition. Elegant in youth, it will evolve magnificently over decades.
