{"product_id":"penfolds-bin-28-2023-barossa-valley","title":"Penfolds Bin 28 Shiraz 2023 | Barossa Valley","description":"\u003cp\u003ePenfolds Bin 28 Shiraz is one of Australia’s most enduring red wine icons, first made in 1959 and originally named after the famous Kalimna vineyard in the Barossa Valley. Today it is a multi-region, multi-vineyard blend drawing on Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, and Padthaway — a showcase of warm climate Australian Shiraz at its most generous and expressive. The 2023 vintage eloquently expresses the Penfolds House Style, balancing fruit intensity with a structure poised for ageing. Peak drinking is forecast from now through to 2043.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAppearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep purple core with a red rim, showing excellent depth and concentration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAroma\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bouquet is decadent and complex — baking spices of cinnamon sugar and sweet custard lead, followed by Chelsea tea cake warmth and a compote of red and black fruits. Skillet-roasted meat and herb-infused pan scrapings add savoury intrigue, with blueberry pie rounding out an unmistakably Penfolds aromatic profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePalate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlue fruits take centre stage — elderberries, blueberries, and bilberries — merging with poached plums and the exotic spiciness of cassia bark. A hint of meat adds depth, whilst chocolate powder tannins provide a luxurious, sculpted mouthfeel that is both assertive and velvety. Umami complexity of tomato consommé and piquant olive tapenade add further dimension, underpinned by a ferrous minerality of real distinction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePairs With\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSlow-roasted lamb, beef brisket, duck confit, aged hard cheeses, and charcuterie.
