The 2021 Bin 28 Shiraz hails from five regions: McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, Padthaway, Wrattonbully and Clare Valley. The wine matured for 12 months in American oak (7% new), and this really amplifies the sweet fruit characters in the mouth. It's already nicely integrated aromatically, despite being poured and opened in the same instance (i.e., no preparation prior to tasting), and is redolent with red and purple berry fruit. Spicy, full throttle and loads of tannin in the mouth. Nicely chewy. The first vintage of this wine was in 1959. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.

The 2021 Shiraz Bin28 is a little shy before building and offering broad blackberry, blackcurrant, blackberry and chocolate aromas with sweet oak support. Supple and fleshy fruited in style with well-weighted tannins, It's a nicely pitched South Australian Shiraz with good upfront generosity, which it will continue to hold over the short to medium term.
