Penfolds is one of Australia’s oldest and most iconic wineries, established in 1844 and renowned for its bold red wines. It was also among the first to adopt a multi-region and multi-winery production model. Starting with the 2019 vintage, Penfolds updated the label of one of its flagship wines, changing the name from “Bin 28 Kalimna Shiraz” to simply “Bin 28.” While the blend still includes fruit from the Kalimna vineyard, it is no longer exclusively sourced from there. The previous label was considered misleading, and the change was made to better reflect the wine’s evolving multi-regional character.

Brilliant purple. A heady, intensely perfumed bouquet evokes dark berry preserves, incense, candied flowers, vanilla and cola, with a smoky, incisive mineral nuance building with air. Juicy, penetrating and alluringly sweet, offering deeply concentrated blueberry, cherry-cola, mocha and violet pastille flavors and a strong suggestion of fruitcake. Shockingly vibrant for its depth, with youthfully firm tannins adding shape and grip to an extremely long, mineral- and floral-dominated finish.

"Rich, concentrated and intense, the 2014 Grange delivers exactly what we've come to expect from this Penfolds icon wine. It's full-bodied, velvety in feel and loaded with plummy fruit, framed in vanilla and cedar. Dense, powerful and tannic, it should prove to be long lived, even by Grange standards. Gago doesn't rate the vintage overall that highly, but he says the selection this year for Grange was a bit more stringent and that production levels were just average. There are still over 1,000 cases for the United States."

Bottle sourced from within the UK.Dark blackish purple. More structured and ambitious than the 2013. Very admirable but, for the moment, a bit dry on the end. Lots of char. Rich in the middle. (JR)
