Tasting Note

Purple in colour with a crimson rim, this wine opens with vibrant Grenache-driven fruit, immediately evoking a sensory journey to an Arabian spice souk—whole pimento, fenugreek, pink peppercorns, anise, and musk intertwine with lifted notes of cola, balsamic-glazed ham, poached quince, sloe berry, and a hint of Campari. Layers of German Schwarzwälder cake and tea-smoked duck add depth and intrigue. On the palate, the blend of varietals works in seamless harmony, delivering a juicy yet precise fruit profile with flavours of lingonberry, loganberry, olallieberry, and red currant. Savoury notes of green tomato salsa and lemon myrtle olives provide contrast, while bright acidity and fine tannins support a beautifully structured wine that is already drinking well and offers great versatility with food.

Product Notes

Penfolds Bin 138 Grenache Shiraz Mataro is a rich and complex red wine blend sourced from premium vineyards in Australia. The Grenache grape brings bright red fruit flavors and a touch of spice, while the Shiraz adds depth and richness with notes of dark berries and pepper. The Mataro, also known as Mourvèdre, contributes earthy and savory characteristics to the blend. This wine is aged in a combination of French and American oak barrels, adding layers of complexity and silky tannins. With a full-bodied mouthfeel and a long, lingering finish, Penfolds Bin 138 is a true expression of Australian winemaking excellence.
