What to Expect

Australia has certainly made Syrah its own, even bestowing it with a new name: Shiraz. In the warm, dry climate of Australia this noble grape, responsible for some of the grandest wines of France, produces an intense, unique expression that is distinctly Australian. The ripe grapes take on classic notes of black pepper and leather that add depth and complexity to the black cherry and plum fruits on the palate. Australian Shiraz has typically been aged in American Oak barrels which impart the wine with a distinct note of vanilla that can add to the impression of ripeness many of these wines have, but the time in barrel also allows the wines a chance to settle and reveal their rich, voluptuously styled mouthfeel.

Winemakers Notes

Am Gaumen vollmundig mit mittlerem Körper und saftigen Aromen von Pflaumen, Kirschen und Beeren.

The palate shows a continuum of generous Shirazvarietal prune notes, plum fruits and assortedspices. The wine is plush, yet still tightlystructured, with a substantial mid-palate. Thenoticeable tannins are youthful and powdery.The 2005 Bin 28 is true to style and offerssignificant aging potential.

Wine Tasting NotesA deepened crimson with a purple core. The nose is complex and beguiling, with notes of demi-glace and roasting pan juices, beneath scents of pipe tobacco, vanilla and pencil shavings oak - much more than just a simple varietal offering. The palate is full-bodied, refined and taut showing dark, black conserve fruit flavors with Satsuma plum notes to the fore. Further liqueur chocolate and spice flavors are impregnated by overt, chewy and ripe tannins. To sum up, the integrated fruit, oak and acid loudly proclaim harmony and balance. The vintage conditions were first class read more...

document.getElementById("NoProductImage").innerHTML = ""; Campbell Mattinson 92 points!One of the wines I really like is the Penfolds Bin 28 Shiraz 2005 ($33). I love its rolling- fleshy- assertive tannin. It's got lots of plummy- earthy flavour and a nice kiss of toasty oak. It's deceptively substantial- its tannin and acid taking time in the glass to settle. I sat with this wine for a while and liked it more and more - the first time I tasted it- last September- it looked brilliant- and I now suspect that it had been decanted for a while at this tasting. It's read more...
