Penfolds has shaped Australian fine wine since 1844, today under chief winemaker Peter Gago. Bin 28 first appeared in 1959 and long carried the name of the Kalimna vineyard in the Barossa Valley. These days the winemaking team draws fruit from five South Australian sources: McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, Padthaway, Clare Valley and Fleurieu. In the glass, Shiraz (100 %) from a warm, dry year. The 2024 spent twelve months in American oak hogsheads, nine percent of them new. The nose offers cedar and tobacco, almost a touch too dominant. The palate is soft, round and pleasantly balanced, powerful and typically Aussie, still a touch forward, playful in character. Erin Larkin awards 93 Parker points. We would drink it from 2026 to 2034, alongside seared lamb cutlets.
