Since the 1970s this quaffable Shiraz Cabernet blend has done its fair share of barbeque and dinner party circuits. Guaranteed with a consistency of quality that can only come from a big name like Penfolds who ensure it's packed with generous fruit flavours and freshness. Its hard to go past when it comes to an easy drinking red, that's easy on the wallet.

Released from the cellar, the Koonunga Hill Shiraz has evolved into a smooth, rich wine that shows the benefits of time. The once-bright red-berried fruit has softened into darker, more savoury notes with hints of spice and earth. Its plush character remains. The tannins, now beautifully integrated, give the wine a silky texture and gentle finish. A classic South Australian Shiraz that’s matured gracefully while retaining its signature generosity.

Seamless and layered, combining sweet red and black fruits, cranberries, mulberries and blackcurrants. Mortadella, shaved fennel and dried fig entice. Savoury details of pâté, green olive tapenade, salsa verde and espresso liqueur carry exceptional length. Succulent and velvety in texture, the wine is underpinned by even, mouth-coating tannins. A beautifully crafted wine that promises to reward patient cellaring. Immediately heady yet refined, offering layered aromatics of exotic spice and elegance. Black berry fruit sits alongside pastel confectionary notes, perfumed violets and lavender, with deeper accents of dark Belgian and Varona chocolate, roasted coffee bean, Brazil nut and pecan pie. Savoury nuances of bresaola, olives and lavosh add intrigue and depth. On further inspection, notes of walnut and mahogany polish arise.

Colour: Blushing ruby red. Medium purple core. Aroma: Intense all spice. Perfumed notes of fresh red currants and strawberries. Light charcuterie notes: pastrami and bresaola. Intensely aromatic. Palate: Red fruits follow onto the palate. Vanilla crème gateaux. Fine graphite powdery tannins. Pannacotta silkiness on the palate. Red fruited succulence, plush juicy fruit and refreshing acidity giving length to palate. A finish reminiscent of creamy strawberry yogurt.

Penfolds Maxs Chardonnay is a tribute to former Chief Winemaker Max Schubert, a legend in Penfolds history. Pale straw in colour with green hues, this wine has a very nice textural and creamy palate with a soft line of acid fading ever so slowly to a distant palate horizon.

One of the benchmark wines to come out of the Coonawarra, the Penfolds Bin 128 is a delightful cool-climate shiraz. Matured in French Oak, with flavours of white pepper and floral spice, the 2014 Bin 128 is a rich and full-bodied Shiraz.

The Bin 389 style evolved as a result of experiments, by Max Schubert, in the 1950s to develop a highly individual wine using a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz with compatible oak treatment. Bin 389 combines the elegance of Cabernet Sauvignon with the richness of Shiraz and demonstrates the traditional Penfolds' trademark - balance between fruit and oak, giving the wine character and longevity.

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.

Unmistakably, Grange, this 2012 vintage is complex, flamboyant and lifted. An aromatic multi-cultural characteristics. The earthiness is well integrated with the aromas of dark fruits, grounded coffee, red liquorice and black olives, which leads to a firmly structured finish.
