Penfolds has named this Pinot Noir Bin 23 from the Cellars 23 at Magill Estate where the wine matures. Bin 23 Pinot Noir is a dynamic and bold inclusion to the Penfolds red wine collection. It reflects a revolutionary style, regional definition and the complexities of the many and varied pinot noir clones. Multi-regional sourcing continues to bring together the relationship between cool-climate regions and Penfolds. 

The fruit for the 2021 vintage of Bin 23 comes from all across Tasmania. There is purity of fruit, balanced by salivating minerality. A terrific food wine. Enjoy now or cellar until 2030.

We leave the mainland now for an exploration of cool-climate Tasmania and what that can bring to the pinot noir variety, a lovely counterpoint to the shiraz-dominated Penfolds collection. It’s a bit tricky to nail down the exact district/s this wine comes from, though there are clues to it being just south-east of Launceston. No mystery to its variety however, as it’s clearly pinot from a set of red fruit and blue floral aromatic notes. Smash strawberry, raspberry and violet petals together and you get the drift, while some earth and gravels add a terroir grounding. A wine with lively acidity and balanced structures, full of energy and a genuine varietal/source intrigue that pinot noir offers when at its best. - Tony Love, Winepilot.com, 96 Points
