Think of RWT as an alter ego to Penfolds’ flagship Grange bottling; Grange is a multiregion blend of old-vine Shiraz from around South Australia and aged in American oak, while RWT is an expression of a single region and aged in French oak. Here the purity of Barossa Shiraz is complemented by a creamy, rich texture. Named “Red Winemaking Trial” during its development in the mid-1990s, this wine is no longer an experiment, but the name stuck and RWT has become a classic in its own right. The winemaking is overseen by Penfolds veteran Peter Gago.
不妨將 RWT 視為 Penfold 酒莊旗艦酒款 Grange 的另一種詮釋；Grange 許是一款產區多元化的混釀，採用來自南澳各地的老藤 Shiraz，並在美國橡木桶中陳釀；而 RWT 則展現了單一產區的風土特色，並在法國橡木桶中陳釀。這款酒純淨的 Barossa Shiraz 與醇厚濃鬱的口感相得益彰。 RWT 在1990年代中期研發之初被命名為 Red Winemaking Trial，如今已不再是試驗品，但這個名字卻沿用至今，RWT 也成為了一款經典之作。釀造過程由 Penfold 酒莊資深釀酒師 Peter Gago 負責。

"Red raspberries abound on the nose of the 2017 RWT Shiraz, which—as usual—is all Barossa fruit aged in French oak (70% new). It's full-bodied and velvety, with appealing notes of dried spices, beef and plenty of red fruit. There's a cedary veneer to this vintage, which looks as if it will need a couple of years to come together, then drink well for up to two decades."
"2017年RWT Shiraz 葡萄酒散發著濃鬱的紅樹莓香氣，一如既往，全部採用 Barossa 的葡萄釀造，並在法國橡木桶（70%新桶）中陳釀。酒體飽滿柔滑，帶有乾香料、牛肉和豐富的紅色水果風味。這款酒略帶雪松木的氣息，似乎還需要幾年時間才能達到最佳狀態，之後可窖藏長達二十年。"
