The first vintage release of this varietal blend was the 1992, labelled ‘Old Vine Barossa Valley’ – it was then elevated to Bin status with the 1998 vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAn abundance of flavoursome fruit. Shiraz is our hero, selected for its fine savoury tannins, dark fruit and generosity across the mid-palate. Grenache tannins, exotic red fruits and lively acid provide ample tension. Mataro plays the anchor role, binding the palate into a harmonious balance with dusty, textural, mouth filling tannins. The tannins combined feel massaged and ground, quietly confident. The acidity is fresh and enticing. The palate is plush, complete. A generous, balanced all-rounder. Certainly not over extracted or pumped up. All together an enticing, complex, evolving wine, with a creamy texture, lively freshness and a willingness to delight from the first sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAWARDS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e94 Points - Huon Hooke\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e94 Points - Ken Gargett, The World of Fine Wine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e93 Points - David Sly, Decanter Magazine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e93 Points - Tony Love\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e93 Points - Nick Stock, JamesSuckling.com\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Australia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42245484216499,"sku":"","price":68.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0587\/2002\/6803\/files\/Bin138.jpg?v=1779337011","url":"https:\/\/curatedwines.sg\/products\/penfolds-bin-138-shiraz-grenache-mataro-barossa","provider":"Curated Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
