Penfolds Bin 28 Shiraz 2023

Description

Product Description: Power and regional depth define Penfolds Bin 28 Shiraz 2023, a wine that reflects more than six decades of house tradition. First released in 1959 and originally centred on Barossa Valley fruit, Bin 28 has evolved into a multi-regional South Australian blend, drawing from premium vineyards to achieve both richness and balance. The 2023 vintage benefits from favourable growing conditions that preserved fruit vibrancy while allowing full flavour development. Matured predominantly in seasoned American oak hogsheads, the wine gains structure and spice without excessive oak sweetness, maintaining the classic Penfolds signature. Dark fruit concentration is complemented by savoury undertones and subtle oak complexity. The texture is generous yet controlled, with tannins that frame rather than dominate. This Shiraz offers immediate appeal while retaining the structure for mid-term cellaring. It is particularly well suited to roast lamb, grilled ribeye, slow-braised beef or robust vegetable dishes. Tasting Notes NOSE – Rich and expressive Aromas of blackberry, plum and blueberry layered with liquorice, dark chocolate and hints of vanilla spice. PALATE – Full-bodied and supple Generous dark berry flavours unfold across the palate, supported by polished tannins, subtle mocha notes and balanced acidity. FINISH – Long and savoury A persistent finish with lingering black fruit, gentle oak spice and a touch of cracked pepper. Reviews & Accolades Deeply coloured with rich blackberry and plum fruit, supported by spice and subtle oak. Full-bodied, generous and structured, finishing long with fine tannins.” — James Halliday Wine Companion, 94 points Finer Details: Style – Red Wine Varietal – Shiraz Country – Australia Region – South Australia (Multi-regional blend) Vintage – 2023 Bottle Size – 750ml ABV – 14.5%
