Bin 28 offers a showcase of warm climate Australian shiraz – ripe, robust and generously flavoured. First made in 1959, Bin 28 was original named after the famous Barossa Valley Kalimna vineyard purchased by Penfolds in 1945 and from which the wine was originally sourced. Today, Bin 28 is a multi-region, multi-vineyard blend, with the Barossa Valley always well represented.

Less savoury and more generously fruited than many of our other 2019 Penfolds Bins.

" Deep, bright red/purple colour, leaving residue in the glass. Multi-faceted blackberry, smoky graphite, iodine and discreet spice aromas with background licorice and a very full-bodied palate, which is firm and gripping.The tannins are assertive and strength-giving, contributing to a very long and authoritative aftertaste. Penetrating and satisfying. A top-level shiraz. "
"Deep crimson. Intense elderberry blackberry, cranberry aromas with red liquorice/ aniseed notes. Elemental, vigorous and juicy with fresh persistent elderberry, blackberry fruits, plentiful brambly/al-dente textures, attractive mid-volume, and fresh long acidity. Finishes chewy firm with dark chocolate chinotto/ dark berry fruits. Needs some time for the elements to fold into each other.
A Penfolds staple that seemingly never disappoints. "
Dark and brooding.
Primary blackberry fruits and black olive tapenade notes segue to black jelly bean; soot.
A formic/V.A. lift merges with odours reminiscent of the burnt crystallised crust of a baked fruitcake.
Caramelised black fig, quince and quandong paste, and juniper add to the evocative mix.
Certainly ripe, but not overripe. At once Bin 28 Shiraz.
Sheen/shine/gloss/flesh – which to choose to best describe the immediate impression of that first sip? Or maybe all four?!
And yet there’s an enlivening acidity that drives the palate … a palate-shape of three dimensions – or as overheard “Well put together”.
Embracing, interwoven, malleable tannins support a chewy appetising mouthfeel.
Bitter chocolate to the fore, pipe tobacco and a mass of dark-berried fruits throughout. Oak? Look harder …it’s there!
McLaren Vale and Barossa Valley recorded well below long-term average winter rainfall, while the vineyards in the South-East growing districts enjoyed above-average winter rainfall. September temperatures were cool with little rainfall resulting in some isolated frost events. Summer was generally hot, with high temperatures delaying veraison. Barossa Valley experienced 31 days of temperatures exceeding 35°C while McLaren Vale experienced 25 days (December to March). Irrigation was crucial to keep vines in good health. The proximity of the Southern Ocean played an important role in moderating temperatures in Wrattonbully and Padthaway, allowing for a high-quality harvest, albeit with smaller yields than average. Although yields were down in all regions, the quality was outstanding with shiraz showing excellent colours, firm tannin profiles and intense flavours.
