Penfolds Bin 169 Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Penfolds Bin 169 Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Penfolds Bin 169 was created to reflect a contemporary winemaking approach with emphasis on both the region and the maturation of Cabernet Sauvignon in fine grained French oak. The wine style is immediately Penfolds while simultaneously illustrative the ongoing search for diversity and style separation. A classic reflection of the region and a testament of Penfolds longstanding commitment to the vineyards of Coonawarra.
Deep red colour with a tinge of purple, the bouquet spicy and reserved, with cassis notes peeping through. The wine is savoury and dry, with fine but persistent tannins lending substantial grip. Mulberry, as well as blackberry and cassis, then a tinge of bitterness seemingly from oak tannins on the finish. A superb cabernet, showing more oak and concentration than Bin 407. - Huon Hooke, 96 Points
