Tasting Notes:

Deep, dense cherry-black. 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!

Technical:

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. 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.

Accolades & Awards:

95 Point Rated - Bob Campbell MW The Real Review

"From McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, Padthaway and Wrattonbully. Aged in seasoned American hogsheads with an emphasis of fruit rather than oak character. Lush, sumptuous dark berry and ripe plum flavours, with a suggestion of Christmas cake character and roast chestnut. Very approachable now"

94 Point Rated - Huon Hooke The Real Review

"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. (McLaren Vale, Barossa, Padthaway, Wrattonbully)"

93 Point Rated - Tyson Stelzer James Halliday Wine Companion

"McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, Padthaway, Wrattonbully fruit. Matured 12 months in seasoned American oak hogsheads. Classic Bin 28. Layers of black fruits, well supported by American oak and nuanced with a hint of smoked charcuterie. Fine-grained tannins support a finish of good length. A good Bin 28, to be sure, though it lacks the brightness, precision and refinement that has characterised the elevation of the labels that surround it in the Penfolds portfolio."

93 Point Rated - Jeni Port Wine Pilot

"Once known as Kalimna shiraz, the word Kalimna no longer can be seen on the label.It is a fully-fledged multi-regional blend these days: McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, Padthaway, Wrattonbully. Despite the name change, the flavour rings true to past releases.

The dense red carries that sweet Aussie fruit imprint. American oak coconut ice – a defining feature – and black-fruited generosity arrive by the barrow-full. It’s bold and richly textured, which is just how Bin 28 drinkers like it. The style has been perfected since it was first made in 1959. No surprises here. Blackberry, cassis, pastille, coconut ice confection, black olives, licorice strap and spice. All up front and in your face a little, it’s warm-climate sourced and proud. No doubt about it. The 14.5% alcohol is equally warming and vocal. Earth, leather, pan forte bring a touch of savouriness and dried fruit intensity while blackberry, bitter chocolate and loaded spice do the rest as the wine rolls over the tongue. Tannins are pliable, rolling with the fruit and alcohol."
