Wine Advocate 95 points!'The 2004 Shiraz 'RWT' was barrel-fermented and aged for 14 months in 69% new French oak. Opaque purple-colored, it delivers an expressive nose of smoke, leather, grilled bacon, game, blueberry, and licorice. Full-bodied, it is dense, ripe, and layered as well as opulent. More forward than the Magill Estate, this hedonistic Shiraz can be enjoyed now but will continue to evolve for another 8-10 years. Penfolds, arguably Australia's most famous winery, continues to perform at a high level under the leadership of Head Winemaker, Peter Gago.'

Nick Stock 93 points!' This is among the very best Penfolds reds, based on judiciously ripe Barossa Shiraz fruit, skilfully overlaid oak and a vastly more refined palate. It never loses its cool. Convincing richness and concentration, deep berry flavour, nicely balanced.'
