Penfolds Bin 23 Pinot Noir 2023

“Bin 23 derives its name from Cellar 23 at Magill Estate, where Pinot Noir barriques are often stored during maturation. It follows in the footsteps of the Penfolds Cellar Reserve Pinot Noir, a wine first made from Adelaide Hills grapes in 1997. Reflecting an evolving style, regional definition, and complexities of the many and varied Pinot Noir clones, Bin 23 Pinot Noir is an elegant, lighter-bodied inclusion in the Penfolds Collection.” – Penfolds Wines

“Very typical, lightly fruity and cool aromas of cherry, red forest berries and fresh herbs. Slender on the palate, with ripe, yet vivid acidity, a medium, smoky and mineral finish. A great Pinot style that could be found on other continents.” – 91/100, tasting from 05.08.2024: Benjamin Herzog
