Bin 23’s name is derived from the place the wine matures, ‘Cellar 23’ at Magill Estate and follows in the footsteps of the success and development of the Penfolds Cellar Reserve Pinot Noir. Bin 23 Pinot Noir is a bold and dynamic inclusion to the Penfolds red wine stable – reflecting an evolving style, regional definition and the complexities of the many and varied pinot noir clones. The relationship between Penfolds and cool-climate regions continues with the multi-regional sourcing of Bin 23 Pinot Noir.

COLOUR
Cranberry red
NOSE
An immediate ascent of wild raspberry and strawberry (conserve) pinot fruits. And, a faint splash of Sicilian green olive.
Hovering above - exotic floral whiffs to remind of an evening meander in the garden - clusters of daphne, azalea and camellia.
Heirloom rose, rosewater and saffron scents patiently await recognition.
A dusty/toasty brioche-like oak reminder of a relatively short sojourn in barrique.
PALATE
Confidently awakens and complexes in glass.
At first varietally-aligned sliced cold lamb flavours and earthy yet subtle forest floor notes.
And then the fruits are revealed - strawberry pips, pomegranate and rhubarb … laced with spices – cola and bergamot leading the way.
