Beschrijving

de RWT (Red Winemaking Trial) ontstond als experiment om te ontdekken wat er mogelijk was met Shiraz en is inmiddels bekend om zijn rijkheid en structuur.

Unlike many of Penfolds’ elite Shiraz wines, Bin 798’s exclusive use of French oak hogsheads (67% new) presents a significantly different character than its stablemates, being more elegant and rarefied, despite the core ingredient being juicy Barossa Shiraz. While the fruity flavours sing, the silky palate certainly benefits from a more relaxed tannin profile – especially when compared to previous vintages. It makes the wine more approachable now, but certainly doesn’t sacrifice any of its durability or cellaring potential. | Decanter | 2024 | 94
