Penfolds Bin 23 Pinot Noir 2022 750mL

Tasting Notes

COLOUR Candy strawberry red NOSE As our vines mature, Tasmanian pinot noir keeps going from strength to strength. Aromatically, this wine is remarkably complex for a lighter bodied style, tantalising. Dark cherries, strawberry sorbet and barberries provide a delightful aromatic lift. The fruit is ably supported by an enchanting oak-char nuance. Earthy forest floor, bramble and truffle notes add further complexity. On the savoury side of the equation are notes of cold lamb, capocollo and pimento stuffed olives in brine. Wet slate and river pebbles round out a complex aromatic profile. PALATE A lovely texture on the palate, with fine, delicate tannins and just ripe phenolics. Steely acidity drives the length providing succulent minerality. Cherry pips, sour cherry and cranberry are complimented by an Aperol-like bitterness on the finish. Very seductive, the second glass beckons. A versatile wine to pair with food, especially duck and other game dishes. PEAK DRINKING Now - 2031
