Another great success story of grape grower turned grower/winemaker. Troy Kalleske is the latest custodian of a family heritage that dates back to 1853 when the Kalleske family first planted vineyards in the Moppa sub-discrict of Greenock, in the north-west of the Barossa Valley. This Shiraz (with a touch of Viognier and Petit Verdot) is 100% biodynamic and has concentrated aromas of blueberry, cloves, violets and dried fig. The silken palate that follows has dark fruit and lifted notes of floral with a sublime length of flavour.

Bin 8 has been crafted in the traditional Penfolds style. Ripe, balanced fruit flavours are supported by softly integrated oak resulting in an impressive, smooth red wine. Textured, plush tannins create a neat and tidy framework to house rich blackberry fruit spiced by derived vanilla pod. Barrel maturation has added a creamy texture and mouthfeel.

Tasting Notes: NOSE Spicy and Fruity Aromas of ripe blackberries, dark plums, and black pepper with undertones of vanilla and toasty oak, balanced by hints of earthy spice. PALATE Bold and Lush A full-bodied palate with rich flavours of dark fruits, dark chocolate, and a blend of spices. The tannins are firm and velvety, providing a smooth texture that supports the bold fruit profile. FINISH Lingering and Complex The finish is long and persistent, with dark fruit flavours and spice lingering, leaving a refined and smooth aftertaste. "This is ultimately a spicy, red-fruited expression...It is fresh and beautiful and slinky, in its way." - Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate - 95 Points “Such projection, finesse and immaculate balance. … The sleekest of tannins here, this is a wine which lingers with intent.” - Kent Gargett, Quill and Pad - 97 Points “… Smells briney and herbal with a top note of liquorice. Nicely married aromas. Tastes salty too with a firm, dry finish though the tannins are clearly ripe and well worked. … Despite its 14.5% alcohol, there's not a jot of alcoholic heat on the long finish, which is so clean and pure it's almost bracing.” - Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20
