A lift of tomato-leaf and sour-cherry on the nose. Background cedary oak just discernible. A summer-pudding swirl of fruits laced with red-currant conserve, praline, green Sicilian olive, plummy fruits and spice. Fine tannins, well-concealed oak. Suitable for drinking now until 2029.

 

Perfect for grilled meats, veal, roast chicken, planked salmon.

 

Bin 2 was first released in 1960, yet was discontinued in Australia in the 1970s at the height of the white wine boom. The original Bin 2 was an ‘Australian Burgundy’ style (despite its Rhône varieties) – typically a soft, medium-bodied wine based on Shiraz.

 

The Bin 2 blend of Shiraz and Mataro is still relatively uncommon in Australian table wines. Also known as Monastrell or Mourvèdre, Mataro was introduced to Australia in the 1830s. Sometimes used in fortified wine production, this grape is widely planted in the Barossa Valley. It is greatly valued by winemakers for its blending attributes, adding complexity and palate grip.

 

A long standing Penfolds, interpretation of a South Australian 'dry red'. What is old, is new again.
