On the nose, it offers aromas of ripe red fruits, such as raspberry, cherry, and strawberry, complemented by hints of spice and subtle floral notes. The Shiraz adds a layer of richness and depth, while the Mourvèdre provides earthy and savoury undertones, with a touch of smokiness.

On the palate, Penfolds Bin 138 GSM 2022 is medium-bodied, with smooth tannins and a balanced acidity. The vibrant fruit flavours from the Grenache are well-integrated with the darker, spicier notes from the Shiraz and Mourvèdre. The wine has a smooth mouthfeel and a long, lingering finish that combines fruit sweetness with a touch of spice and earthiness.

Penfolds Bin 138 GSM pairs well with a variety of dishes, including grilled meats, roast lamb, or pasta with rich sauces. It’s a versatile wine that can be enjoyed now or aged for additional complexity over time.
