Penfolds Bin 128 Coonawarra Shiraz 2007 So with the exception of the Bin 28 Kalimna, it’s pretty much a big thumbs up from me for the 2009 Penfolds Bin releases. I like what I’ve seen of 2007 Coonawarra so far I might add. There’s a touch of pepper, raspberry rope and fresh red berry fruits backed with light cedar oak - clean and lively. It’s mid weight, fresh and very tasty with brightly lit red fruits and a little spice - some slightly bitter herbal flavours don’t detract. The tannins are firm and lightly drying and the finish is good - a little peppery but fruit sweet and expansive. Nice wine. Very young but should age well. Drink : 2011 - 2020 90 points Gary Walsh, The Wine Front PENFOLDS Bin 128 is one of the most distinctive reds in the PENFOLDS stable. Firstly, as a 'Coonawarra Shiraz', it is one of the few PENFOLDS reds that isn't a multi regional blend. It is also matured solely in French oak. French oak generally lends a wine understated, aromatic characters and is therefore a better choice with more subtly flavoured wines. Coonawarra typically produces zesty, spicy and supple Shiraz fruit that exhibits a richness of flavour and a mouth filling roundness on the palate. Bin 128 is true to this style.
