Penfolds, Bin 170 Shiraz Size:3x750ml elegant and pure personalityThis is only the second release since 1973 from Block 3C of Penfolds Kalimna vineyard, whose centenarian vines regularly contribute to Grange. Ringing the changes, Bin 170 was matured in French oak hogsheads, 55% new, for 16 months. The palate is saturated with star anise edged blackberry and blood plum fruit which rises in tandem with an exceptionally fine swathe of tannins, polished to a high sheen. Accessible yet slippery, there's much more to come.
