"Strong purple-red; a full-bodied and rich Bin 28, awash with blackberry and plum fruit, fruitcake and mocha flavours, the tannins plentiful, but soft and ripe, the American oak dextrously handled as ever." 94 Points - James Halliday, Halliday's Wine Companion, 11th July 2021
Penfolds Bin 28 Kalimna Shiraz 2008 offers a showcase of warm-climate Australian Shiraz which is ripe, robust and generously flavoured. First made in 1959, Bin 28 is named after the famous Barossa Valley Kalimna Vineyard purchased by Penfolds in 1945 and from which the wine was originally sourced.
