Penfolds Shiraz Kalimna Bin 28 1997

Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaThis is more of the traditional Penfolds style with big sweet American oak dominating on the nose and rich ripe blackberry jam flavours. One can see why Kalimna vineyard produces much of the base wine for Grange as well as setting the style for this multi-regional blend. Vanilla, prunes and white pepper all add to its intoxicating mix. This is a big red with supple tannins that has a fine future ahead of it.Tasted: 01 March 2000Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
