Penfolds Bin 600 California Cabernet Shiraz - 2019 (750ml)
The 2019 Bin 600 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. The Cabernet Sauvignon is from a selection of vineyards across Napa, "and there is a little it of Sonoma in there as well," says Peter Gago. The Shiraz is from the Paso Robles vineyard; it's a 78/22 blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. The fruit heres is so sweet and plush—there is a distinct red berry character that settles and plumes on the mid-palate. Texturally, it is supple, silky and almost plump. 2019 was generally mild and good, and it has produced a suite of wines that are luscious and opulent. The tannins are the framework that drags the fruit back from the edge and brings balance and form to the wine. Smart. - Erin Larkin
Intense ruby with purple reflections and a broad and bright ochre rim. Subtle liquorice and cassis aromas with ripe, sweet black cherries, hints of nougat and fresh orange zest against a delicate background of savoury wood notes. Medium bodied on the palate with red berries, hints of nougat, fresh acidity and a subtle sweetness with a hint of caramel on the finish. Already approachable but will develop further. Drink now - 2035. - Peter Moser
