Penfolds Coonawarra Bin 169 2016

Sweet plum, blackcurrant pastille, mint and eucalyptus, plenty of turmeric, cocoa bean and rosemary spice, tannins just beginning to melt, with an earthy edge that makes it both generous and appealing, ready to drink but with plenty of life ahead. Cabernet with a smile. 50% new French oak. Peter Gago chief winemaker.
