Penfolds Bin 128 Shiraz 2019

Bright, deep purple/red colour, which leaves residue in the glass when swirled. Spicy blackberry, aniseed aromas, lots of blackstrap licorice, the palate intense and focused, fine and driving, with bright flavour and elegance allied with discreet power. The palate has tension and drive, tautness and penetration. It gives the impression of just beginning to unfold its treasures. A superb shiraz. Drink date: 2021-2041. Score - 95.
