The Wine Advocate, which rates this equal to the famed âBaby Grangeâ Bin 389 this year, says:. The full-bodied 2016 Bin 28 Kalimna Shiraz is a blend of fruit from Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Padthaway, Upper Adelaide and Wrattonbully. It's a warm-climate, rich, plush Shiraz, with a velvety mouthfeel and lingering savory notes on the finish. Halliday, who rates it 95 points, agrees:. Matured for 12 months in used American oak. Like all the Penfolds '16 red wines, flawless colour and clarity heralds a bouquet that leaps out of the glass with a heady perfume of roses, bramble, spice and licorice. The palate duly delivers an effortless wave of dark chocolate, cherry and licorice. 14.5% alc, cork 95 points, drink to 2036. Also 95 from the leading Penfolds (and Australian auction wine) expert, Andrew Caillard:. Medium deep crimson. Classic dark chocolate dark berry aromas with roasted walnut, shellac notes. Lovely fresh inky, mulberry, blackberry fruits, fine looseknit chocolaty tannins, and underlying roasted nut/savoury notes. Finishes chocolaty and long with red liquorice, aniseed nuances. A very stylish âgo-toâ claret type with all of the hallmarks of the Penfolds house style. Ripe fruit, richness of flavour, concentration and chocolaty textures. Although drinking well, keep for a few years. 95 points Drink now â" 2035. Also 95 from Australian wine writer Huon Hooke:. Deep, dense red/purple colour leads into a rich, ripe, chocolaty bouquet, which has background blackberry and dark plum notes, as well as hints of graphite and tar. A classic Bin 28, full-bodied, rich, rounded and structured for ageing, although it drinks well already. 18/20 from Britain's leading Aussie wine expert, Matthew Jukes:. Delicious and with more density and depth than Bin 128, this is a classic Penfolds-shaped wine with serious depth and it involves all of the South Australian Shiraz flavours in perfect harmony. Another wine with immediate appeal, it is richer and heavier than Bin 128 but it is another finely tuned wine. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: center; font: 14.0px Cambria} p.p2 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: center; font: 14.0px Cambria; min-height: 16.0px} p.p3 {margin: 0.1px 0.0px 0.1px 0.0px; text-align: center; font: 14.0px Times} p.p4 {margin: 0.1px 0.0px 0.1px 0.0px; text-align: center; font: 10.0px Times; min-height: 13.0px}.
