Penfolds Kalimna Bin 28 Shiraz 2018, South Australia  

100% Shiraz with 12 months in seasoned American oak hogsheads. 

This has moved to position itself firmly as a wine that trades on the strengths of Barossa Shiraz, in an all-round way, while also incorporating McLaren Vale and Padthaway sourcing. Deep blackberries and redder fruit with a creamy, vanillin-laced nose and some cedar and tarry notes. The palate has a smooth build of fleshy fruit and silky, refined and polished tannin. 

“True to form. And what form! This style of shiraz, aka Bin 28, has gobbled up all that a terrific harvest like 2018 has generously thrown its way! Balance and complexity. Not too much of anything, nor too little of what really matters." Peter Gago, Penfolds Chief Winemaker

Bin 28 offers a showcase of warm-climate Australian Shiraz – 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. Today, Bin 28 is a multi-region, multi-vineyard blend, with the Barossa Valley always well represented.
