PENFOLDS BIN 138 GRENACHE SHIRAZ | 750ML

Description:
Colour: Cherry red.
Nose: Fragrant, welcoming. Warm, sweet spices – cardamom and a touch of paprika propelled above; omnipresent dried and glacéed fruits. No oak noted, expertly hidden. No variety dominating.
Palate:  Medium-bodied, nevertheless still quite rich and opulent. Certainly, an interplay of varieties, creating an interlocked fruit weave/gauze (pomegranate, strawberry). This woven textural impression is supported by a mouth-watering finish, ushered via a lacy mesh of assorted tannins. Well-shaped and formed; juicy, succulent and mouth-coating.
