Penfolds Bin 150 Shiraz Marananga 2023

Very deep purple/red colour with glass-staining residue, the bouquet loaded with , earthy, ferrous aromas that suggest ironstone and dried blood. The wine is very full-bodied, densely structured, highly concentrated and gripping, with masses of tannin. Chewy aftertaste that lingers long and echoes with multiple spices, especially cinnamon, clove and indeed, all of the five-spices. Tremendous length and impact: very much a western Barossa style of shiraz. (Saw 12 months in American and French oak barrels, 41% new). Drink date: 2023-2044.
