Premium Wine List: Penfolds Bin 138 Grenache Shiraz Mourvedre 2005
(Barossa, SA)’Slightly jammy and confectionary aromas of red plums, redcurrants and violets are backed by dusty, spicy notes of cloves and cinnamon, light mocha oak plus a distinctly tarry aspect. Forward and juicy, it’s vibrant and intense enough, but lacks great palate length, finishing with a savoury and slightly salty aspect and a lingering note of licorice. Backed by fine, restrained tannins, it’s an early drinker. (Barossa Valley, 87 points, drink 2007-2010 Jeremy Oliver)
