Tasting Notes:

Penfolds Bin 28 Kalimna South Australia Shiraz 2016

Vibrant, dense plum red, red edges. A black Kalamata olive tapenade as a first impression, beneath an overlay of camphor and tobacco. How to say this politely? Boot polish, bitumen, cola, granite ... darkened style/varietal base notes. Yet blackberry conserve and sour cherry fill the (fruity) treble register. Scents of cut straw/steel cut oats fill any aromatic chord gaps. Full-bodied. Substantial. Framboise des bois (raspberry) with pips/vinegar – coulis or apothecary? Meat? Closest association noted – raw/rare venison. Not to deny the welcomed presence of chocolate torte and mocha flavours.

A “cloaked” continuum of tannins that linger and reverberate with the discipline of a vinous pendulum. Finishes intact with a flourish of dusty graphite (input of oak?) and balanced acidity.


Lindsay Park Barossa Valley Shiraz 2017

Purple with a red hue. Luscious fruit initially with blackberry and plum prominent along with a touch of spice. Plush and opulent with bright berry fruit flavours of blackberry and plum whilst so younger fruit characters of blueberry shine through on the mid palate. Toasty oak with spice and fine tannins provide length.


1838 Reserve McLaren Vale Grenache 2018

A bright crimson purple colour. Pretty, fresh and vibrant joven style with raspberry, black berry and some mulberries. Delicious upfront fruit flavours dominate. The wine delivers bright red berry fruits with a soft and silky mid-palate and finishes with elegant and juicy tannins.


Normans Bin C169 McLaren Vale Pinot Noir 2018

This wine has a fragrant nose displaying lifted aromas of cherries and spice with some savoury notes. Wonderfully balanced pure palate, which is light with subtle texture of cherry supported by well-integrated fine tannins leading to a long elegant finish with hints of spice. An easy drinking styled Pinot Noir.


Einzellage 100 Year Old Vine Valley Floor Barossa Valley Grenache 2017

Lovely purple colour with red hue. A bright, red cherry, blueberry and cranberry packed nose. Light to medium bodied the bouquet doesn’t let you down as your met with overwhelming fruit flavours of blueberry and cherry, its back with some herbal notes and finishing with soft tannin which round everything up provided a wine only describable as beautifully pretty.


Songlines Estates Leylines Shiraz 2018

Beautiful purple with ruby red rim. Vibrant and youthful but very approachable highlighted by black and red fruits, with aromas of fresh plum, blackberry and cherry with hints of raspberry and mulberry making their way through. Fresh fruit forward style making it ideal in its youth, freshly cut plum, cherry and raspberry give initial palate depth while silky tannins and a kiss of oak give length and drive.


Bare Necessities Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

Deep ruby red with plum hues. Red berry, plums and a touch of savoury pepper along with a slight hint of oak. A lovely fruit driven style with a rich mouth filling palate showing abundant juicy fruit falvours. Red berries and plum characters are evident with more complex capsicum savoury notes, clean tannins and soft touch of oak. 


Technical:

Penfolds Bin 28 Kalimna South Australia Shiraz 2016

All the major growing regions in South Australia experienced ideal conditions leading into the harvest of 2016. Overall, the season started off cool and dry, with low rainfall. Spring and early summer warmed up considerably resulting in an average growing season with little rainfall. A warm, dry spring was ideal for flowering and fruit-set. Warm conditions prevailed in the early part of the summer allowing vines to grow well with good bunch set. Milder conditions in January allowed for optimal flavour development, with late rain refreshing the vines.

Despite the challenges of a relatively dry season, ripening was even with smaller than average berries. Harvest commenced quickly with shiraz showing great colour and complex flavours.


Lindsay Park Barossa Valley Shiraz 2017

The fruit for this wine was picked over 10 days from a single vineyard in the Barossa Valley ensuring a range of fruit characters despite being from a single location. We then crushed, de-stemmed and left on skins in open top fermenters for 7 days. A slow ferment then occurred at cool temperatures, the wine was pumped over to ensure fruit intensity. Once fermentation was completed the wine was pressed into old French and American barrels. The wine spent 12 months maturing in oak then under went final barrel selection prior to bottling with minimal filtration.


1838 Reserve McLaren Vale Grenache 2018

Fruit was sourced from 2 select growers in the McLaren Vale region of South Australia. The result is intensely flavoured wines due to the care and attention these growers give them. This wine was fermented warm and received pump overs during their fermentation. The wine is made in a joven style to ensure fruit purity is the hero here.


Normans Bin C169 McLaren Vale Pinot Noir 2018

Normans is one of the oldest and most respected names in Australian Winemaking. Since 1853, when Jesse Norman planted his first vines in Adelaide, Normans has developed a reputation for premium award winning wines. The Bin Range reflects the bin numbers at the Old Clarendon Winery where Normans have produced so many epic wines, with the company’s commitment To the tradition of fine wine making.


Einzellage 100 Year Old Vine Valley Floor Barossa Valley Grenache 2017

Sourced From One Of Barossa Valleys Most Revered Growers from a single vineyard located on the outskirts of Tanunda on the Valley Floor from a vineyard which just celebrated its 100th birthday. Fruit was picked in early hours of morning when temperatures were at their lowest for the day to ensure fruit remained crisp whilst being transported to winery. The grapes were destalked and placed uncrushed into small stainless steel open top fermenters. Cultured yeast was used to start fermentation and the tanks were hand plunged spending 7 days on skins at 26 degrees. The skins we gently pressed and we kept the wine in tank to create a virgin style of Grenache to retain fleshy fruit flavours then bottled with minimal filtration and no fining.


Songlines Estates Leylines Shiraz 2018

“Songlines” are invisible pathways which criss cross the land all over Australia and stretch across continents and ages. The exceptional wine is named Songlines as it perfectly encapsulates the importance of the land, people and knowledge learned over time and across continents.

Leylines is made with the same meticulous care and attention as Songlines and Bylines but with a smaller price tag. The grapes come from vineyards a little younger than Songlines and Bylines and the fruit has been specifically hand chosen for its approachability as a young wine. 2018 saw the selection of some older material as part of the final blend to add some more complex character and add longevity. The winemaking uses warmer ferments in traditional open fermenters with hand “piage” 4 times each day to soften the palate, and the use of older barrels to impart less oak dominance. The wine is matured for 12 months in older French barrels to provide softer rounder oak character.


Bare Necessities Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

The grapes for this wine were picked in the early hours of the morning from select vineyards across Victoria to ensure temperatures were as cool as possible. Crushed to rotary fermenters the grapes were then allowed to macerate for 2 days before inoculation and fermentation.  Pressed off skins 7 days later and allowed to go through the second malolactic fermentation. The wine has then had minimal handling prior to filtration for bottling.


Accolades & Awards:

Penfolds Bin 28 Kalimna South Australia Shiraz 2016

96 Points James Halliday Wine Companion 

Striking hue, depth and clarity; the bouquet and palate sing in unison with a rich brocade of black cherry and stitches of cedary French oak (ex 30% new hogsheads) and fine-grained tannins. Its balance and length are impeccable.

95 Points Huon Hooke, The Real Review 

Deep, dense red/purple colour leads into a rich, ripe, chocolaty bouquet, which has background blackberry and dark plum notes, as well as hints of graphite and tar. A classic Bin 28, full-bodied, rich, rounded and structured for ageing, although it drinks well already

95 Points Andrew Caillard MW

Medium deep crimson. Classic dark chocolate dark berry aromas with roasted walnut, shellac notes. Lovely fresh inky, mulberry, blackberry fruits, fine looseknit chocolaty tannins, and underlying roasted nut/savoury notes. Finishes chocolaty and long with red liquorice, aniseed nuances. A very stylish “go-to” claret type with all of the hallmarks of the Penfolds house style. Ripe fruit, richness of flavour, concentration and chocolaty textures. Although drinking well, keep for a few years.

92 Points The Wine Front 

It’s mandated at Penfolds releases that at some point the word spotless must be employed. Here it is. A spotless impression of plum jam, creamy-vanilla whipped over the top, spice notes thrown in to give the party some variety. This wine takes freshness, the Penfolds house style, big company resources, gut-busting volume and good old fashioned attention-to-detail and somehow spits out the perfect consumer-friendly red wine. This is modern Australia in a bottle, in the way it presents fresh berried fruit, history cuddled within. It’s a pitch perfect Bin 28. It sits on the warmer, boozier, jammier end of what we expect from this label, so be warned, but volume of fruit and that creamy smoothness.
