This is Penfolds second French Wine Trial from the storied vineyards of Bordeaux, crafted by blending three of the region's classic varietals – Cabernet, Merlot and Petit Verdot. The palate is vibrant and contemporary with cherry and black fruits, cinnamon and nutmeg notes.

As a limited edition release, this champagne appeals to both collectors and enthusiasts seeking a unique expression of Franco-Australian winemaking prowess.

This beautifully balanced and youthful wine exudes elegance and power. Full-bodied, with dark fruit character and layers of vanilla, graphite, and mint. It's opulent and age-worthy, a gem for the cellar.

Grange is arguably Australia’s most celebrated wine. Crafted with intensely structured shiraz grapes for an Australian style recognised as one of the world’s great wines. With an unbroken line of vintages from the experimental 1951, Grange demonstrates the synergy between shiraz and South Australia.

Bin 407 is a vibrant, elegantly structured Cabernet Sauvignon with dark fruit, mocha and chocolate notes. Medium-bodied with fine, rounded tannins, it delivers varietal clarity and approachable richness. Perfectly cellared, it’s drinking beautifully right now while offering depth and sophistication.

Colour Purple core, red rim. Nose The nose is both intriguing and complex, beckoning the senses with an almost ferrous intensity that speaks to the wine's earthy terroir. Entwined within this metallic frame are layers of confectionary delight (liquorice all sorts and red pastilles) adding sweetness. Fresh fennel emerges with its aromatic aniseed charm, followed by baking spices. The savouriness deepens as notes of tomato relish interplay with pancetta and cured beef, providing depth and richness, followed by caper berries and hints of brine. Palate On the palate, sumac introduces itself first, offering its signature tang that invigorates the taste buds and provides a textural counterweight to the underlying umami flavours. This paves the way for a generous core of sweet dark fruits that envelops the mouth in velvety decadence. The tannins are fine yet persistent; they are powdery by nature but resolute in structure, lending support to the robust fruit profile without dominating it. Quartz minerality provides a crystalline clarity that is both refreshing and grounding amidst this richness. The savoury spice blend – cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice – weaves through each sip, accompanied by plum succulence and fenugreek's maple-like sweetness.
