Penfolds Bin 128 Coonawarra Shiraz 750ml

Ferric red. Licentious and ‘loud’. An animated uplift of so many desirable shiraz fragrances from South Australia’s Coonawarra region. Liberated Mediterranean spices – paprika, rosemary, pink peppercorn – merge into scents of earthy, gamey sautéed lentil, and then to those of steamed corned beef/silverside. Convincingly, silverside/corned beef flavours, freshness insured with a cranberry and fresh date garnish. Dusty – undeniably terra rossa derived. Closer inspection reveals a brick dust textural mesh, reinforced by fine grained, chalky tannins.
