✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Penfolds Bin 170 is an extraordinarily rare, single-vineyard Shiraz of legendary status, sourced exclusively from the historic Kalimna Vineyard's Block 3 in the Barossa Valley. First released as a one-off in 1973, this iconic bottling was spectacularly resurrected in 2010 to commemorate Penfolds' 170th anniversary. Block 3 is revered for its ancient, ungrafted vines planted in sandy loams over deep red clay, producing fruit of immense concentration, structure, and complexity. Matured in premium French oak hogsheads, Bin 170 represents the pinnacle of single-site Barossa Shiraz, showcasing a majestic interplay of dark fruit, savory spice, and exquisite structural refinement that pays homage to Penfolds' rich winemaking heritage.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Penfolds blev grundlagt i 1844 af dr. Christopher Rawson Penfold og hans hustru Mary på Magill Estate i South Australia og er i dag et af Australiens ældste og mest ikoniske vinhuse. Ejendommen opnåede legendarisk international anerkendelse i 1950'erne under den visionære chefvinmager Max Schubert, som skabte Penfolds Grange og revolutionerede landets vinfremstilling. Drevet af en berømt filosofi om at blande på tværs af regioner og druesorter udvælger Penfolds enestående druer fra historiske australske terroirs – herunder Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale og Coonawarra – samt fra udvalgte internationale topområder. Vinhuset er verdenskendt for kraftfulde, upåklageligt strukturerede og særdeles lagringsværdige vine anført af flagskibet Grange, Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon og den berømmede Bin-serie.
