Note di degustazione
The 2023 Bin 138 is silky, spicy and medium-bodied, with attractively dry tannins to balance the sweetness from the fruit. There are earthy and root, exotic spice and mineral notes, with dark berry fruits. It's a blend of 56% Grenache, 38% Shiraz and the balance Mataro/Mouverdre, all components vinified separately, matured for 12 months in seasoned French and American oak hogsheads. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork.

56% Grenache, 38% Shiraz, 6% Mataro. ‘The Barossa Valley’s 2023 vintage … was a testament to grape grower’s resilience and adaptation in the face of varied climatic conditions.’ Cool spring with torrential rain in October continued wet and cool until December/January. ‘The 2023 vintage concluded with yields surpassing expectations, a result of the advantageous late-season weather and vigilance during the spring tempests.’ Aged for 12 months in seasoned French and American oak hogsheads. TA 6.0 g/l, pH 3.65. Mid-depth garnet. Savoury and meaty on the nose. A little chewy on the end without that much depth but competent and definitely Australian! (JR)
The 2023 Grenache blend Bin 138 has a Côtes du Rhône feel with layers of pure blackberry and cherry compote aromas layered with charcuterie and spice. This is impressive for its age. The 2023 is slick, medium-bodied and somewhat understated due to the vintage, but this retains integrity through the al dente finish.
