Penley Estate HELIOS Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

"Contemporary Coonawarra at its best. Powerful yet understated, the combination of dark fruit, savory notes and concentrated tannin results in a pure expression of cabernet sauvignon. A complex nose full of cassis, mulberry, violets and licorice are supported by French oak. The palate is bold, generous and seductive, driven by a core of juicy fruit and a savory texture of tannins that provide excellent length. This is a wine of incredible depth, complexity and finesse." - Kate Goodman (winemaker).

The logo on the label of the High Estate wine series is the representation of the sun. Winemaking is not really a science, nor a recipe. It is feeling, all the senses are needed, looking for the key to making the best wine. It is often referred to as "black art. The High Estate wines, EOS and HELIOS, are made from the best grapes of the year. A personification of the sun. The best of Penley Estate.
  • About Penley Estate

    Penley is an amalgamation of the Penfold and Tolley families. Both families had long been involved in winemaking, but it wasn't until 1988 that the first scions purchased a plot of land and planted cabernet sauvignon on it. In 1989, they won gold with it at the Adelaide Wine Show and realized that winemaking should become their life's goal. The passion continued, and in 1995 an impressive estate was built that greatly increased the prestige of the wines. Penley Estate is a thoroughly Australian story that translates into accessible wines of superb quality.

    Penley Estate is one of Coonawarra's leading wineries and one of the best makers of cabernet-sauvignon, shiraz and red assemblages in the country. Penley Estate winemaker Kate Goodman (pictured center) is considered one of Australia's finest contemporary winemakers. Kate makes wines with freshness and vibrancy - seeking structure and expression of fruit - while maintaining the integrity of the varietal. All Penley wines are made from homegrown grapes and registered by The Vegan Society. Hans Loder looks after the quality of the grapes and vineyard. He is a master of his craft.

    Hans looks for balance and takes a very holistic approach to winemaking practices, seeking a balance between the soil and the vine.
