Penfolds Bin 95 Grange Shiraz 2014 (750ml)

Penfolds Bin 95 Grange Shiraz 2014 is a Shiraz wine, presented in a 750ml bottle.

Fruit for the 2014 vintage comes from Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Wrattonbully, Coonawarra, Clare Valley, and Magill Estate. The wine was matured for 20 months in 100% new American oak hogsheads.

Deep, dense youthful red/purple colour. The bouquet is a riot of preserved plums, mocha, smoky toasty oak - less obvious than the Granges of yore - with hints of tar and graphite. The wine is full-bodied but it's not a blockbuster. It's dense and concentrated, but not overpowering. Indeed, the wine is superbly balanced and has even a touch of elegance. The tannins are certainly abundant, with a touch of traditional Grange firmness, but it's a very easy Grange to understand and enjoy. Less likely to intimidate!
