The Coonawarra enjoys a relatively cool climate and the profile of shiraz from this region differs markedly to shiraz produced from the Barossa. Aromatically, the Penfolds' Bin 128 Coonawarra Shiraz exhibits more peppery spice than sweet spice, red rather than black fruits and fennel over aniseed. Structurally it is firmer, with pronounced acid and savoury tannins.
This refined wine is renowned for its consistency and reliability as both a current-drinking and cellaring-type red.
Penfolds' Bin 128 represents the synergistic blending of Penfolds’ mastery of shiraz with the unique climate and growing conditions of Coonawarra, to create a wine that delivers a distinctly regional twist to the classic Penfolds style.
The Bayfield family has been collecting and cellaring premium wines for over 30 years. All wines have been cellared in temperature and humidity controlled conditions.
