Penfolds Bin 150 Marananga Shiraz
Bin 150 Marananga Shiraz is a sub-regional expression that is unmistakably Penfolds in character. Conceived from the ancient soils of Marananga, which lie very close to the centre of the Barossa Valley floor – slightly to the North-West, where warm dry conditions and rich red soil provide the backbone to some of the region’s best-known wines. Each release delivers a contemporary Shiraz alternative, framed by a mix of oaks; French and American, old and new – crafted in the 'Penfolds way'.
Colour:Â Dense black core. Deep purple rim
Nose: Our Marananga vineyards lie in the heart of the Barossa Valley, typifying everything we love about Barossa Shiraz. Such complexity! So many layers to unfurl. A distinctive ferric nose denotes the ancient Marananga ironstone, hundreds of millions of years old. Also derived from this geology, dusty graphite powder and whetstone, asphalt/hydrocarbon. A walk-through Chinatown... roast duck with plum sauce, Hoisin BBQ pork ribs. Notes of exotic spice, star anis, cardamom, pimento, acknowledging French puncheon influence.
Palate: As we have come to anticipate, satsuma plums and boysenberries provide a varietal/regional signature. Grippy, ripe and rich tannins anchor a tightly structured frame. Freshly sawn oak. Rye sourdough crust – still hot out of the oven. Toasted pumpkin seeds on grilled halloumi. Sarsaparilla, black cardamom pods and ethereal nutmeg spice
