Description
First produced in 1959, Bin 28 is Penfolds earliest Bin-range wine, a voluminous and glossy shiraz. With an interwoven tannic structure and alluring tobacco and dried fruit notes, this is a satisfying red wine for mature cheese and savoury dishes.Tasting Notes
COLOUR Deep, dense cherry-black NOSE 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 remini scent of the burnt crystallised crust of a freshly (over) 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. PALATE 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. But what does it actually taste like? Bitter chocolate to the fore, pipe tobacco and a mass of dark-berried fruits throughout. Oak? Look harder ...it’s there!Product Details
