Penfolds Bin 95 Grange - South Australia Shiraz - 2012 (Single Bottle) - 750ml

Grape Variety - 98% Shiraz and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon¶¶Colour - Dense and imposing. Dark… RED!¶Nose - Unmistakably, it is what it is. In a word, Grange.¶(Almost) all unleashed immediately upon the first splash into the glass – exuberant, lifted, flamboyant.¶An aromatic ‘multi-cultural’ chromatogram brazenly unfolds:¶First, enticing barrel ferment formics and balsamics, spliced with soy, tomato puree, black olive and liquorice (Dutch?).¶Then, the exotics - wafts of tiramisu/mascarpone/zabaglione (Italy?), replete with freshly roasted hazelnut and ground coffee beans (Kenya?)¶30 seconds later…¶Palate - Fresh and refined. Nervy.¶Red liquorice, gravy reduction flavours and black olive tapenade to the fore. And then, just so much more!¶Where to start?¶Compelling depth - weighty/voluminous/fleshy - structurally complete and even throughout.¶A radiant inner sheen, yet still assertive – a film encrusted with dusty, softened tannins that coat tongue.¶Great length.¶A loss of innocence, as sculptured oak (purity/clean) and a boundless array of red fruits, congeal into¶a darkened pool of (un)known and (un)savoury delights!¶Unashamedly and quite blatantly THE wine of this year’s Penfolds 2016 new releases! Enough said
