First made in 1959, Penfolds Kalimna Shiraz is an icon in the field of warm-climate Shiraz. Always ripe, robust and generously flavoured. The Bin 28 is named after the Kalimna vineyard that was purchased back in 1945 and from which the original fruit was sourced from. Today, the Bin 28 is a great example of the Penfolds dedication to multi-region, multi-vineyard blending. The Barossa Valley will always remain an integral part of the Bin 28 blend providing rich, vibrant primary fruit flavours.

Please note: A limit of 24 bottles per customer applies.

Medium deep crimson purple. Intense aniseed, liquorice, blueberry, mulberry, blackberry aromas with ginger, mint notes. Elemental but buoyant, deliciously juicy and voluminous with intense dark berry flavours, plentiful chocolaty tannins and lovely savoury complexity. Drink it or hoard it. A first class Bin 28.

In a flight of the forty finest vintages of Bin 28 since 1963 in the Rewards of Patience tasting last year, the trilogy of 2008, 2009 and 2010 was the highlight. If 2008 was defined by richness and 2009 by restraint, 2010 unites the best of both worlds in magnificent concentration, within a framework of elegant structure. Its colour is monumentally deep, jet black with a narrow, vibrant purple rim. The palate slowly uncoils to reveal tremendous depth of succulent black plum, blackberry and liquorice, with a crunchy vibrancy and an air of violet perfume that hovers from start to finish, framed in delightfully poised tannins of commanding structure yet ultra-fine restraint. For the record, Barossa Valley (51%), McLaren Vale, Langhorne Creek, Wrattonbully and Robe, aged in seasoned American oak. This wine would do any Bin 28 back to 1959 proud, Gago declared. It certainly did that day.

Its clean as a whistle, well fruited, well balanced and well ripened. It tastes of plums and brackeny blackberry, soy sauce and slippery vanillin oak. The fruit here has a gritty, mulberried, almost seaweed-like character, and the finish is warm with salty alcohol. A chalky churn of tannin sticks through the finish. It tastes like a wine where the sugars built (slightly) ahead of the flavours. Its well put together and, I suspect, will age long term theres a lot of tannin here and with air, good grunt of fruit but theres nothing top-notch about it.
