This deep purple-red Cabernet-Shiraz blend from Penfolds, Bin 180, displays a beguiling sense of otherness with a hint of exotic spices. Upon opening, it releases an immediate pastrami meatiness, followed by aromas of Middle Eastern spices and berried summer pudding. The palate reflects a combination of blueberry and blackberry flavours with an overall youthful, bright, and vivacious profile. The tannins are chewy and well-balanced, enhanced by its conveyance in 100% 1-year-old oak. With all the right ingredients for longevity, this wine promises a generous mid-palate and a velvety mouthfeel. A true reflection of its nose, this wine demands time and patience to fully appreciate its complexities. A turbo-charged Coonawarra blend that is not quite Cabernet, not quite Shiraz, but truly special.
"The opportunity for Penfolds to create a bold and bombastic blend to commemorate its 180th anniversary must have been tempting, and I love that it chose a very different and compelling path, highlighting not the grandeur of the warmer regions of South Australia in new American oak but the definition and tension of Coonawarra in the epic and cool 2021 season, sensitively framed in seasoned French oak. The definitive Australian blend has been recreated here with classic, fine-boned precision, singing with all the lifted brightness of this cool, traditional season. The crunchy redcurrant and blackcurrant fruit of cabernet sauvignon is perfectly integrated with the blackberries of shiraz. Fine-grained, limestone-mineral tannins like only Coonawarra can conjure are perfectly harmonised with the structural support of French oak. The result is one of the finest wines of the modern era of Penfolds and the epitome and exemplar that less is indeed oh so much more."
