✨ Tekniske specifikationer
First released in 1960, Penfolds Bin 2 is a historic Australian blend that celebrates the traditional partnership of Shiraz and Mataro (also known as Mourvèdre). In its early days, it was often referred to as an 'Australian Burgundy' style—a soft, medium-bodied red designed for approachable drinking. Although temporarily discontinued in the 1970s during a market shift toward white wines, it was successfully reintroduced and remains a favorite for its savory complexity. Mataro, which has thrived in South Australia since the 1830s, contributes earthy undertones, spice, and structural grip, perfectly balancing the plush, dark-fruit profile of the Shiraz. The wine is typically matured in seasoned oak to preserve its fresh, fruit-driven character and regional expression.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Penfolds blev grundlagt i 1844 af Dr. Christopher og Mary Penfold ved Magill Estate ved foden af Mount Lofty Ranges og er en af de absolutte hjørnestene i australsk vinhistorie. Gennem næsten to århundreder har vinhuset udviklet sig fra at fremstille hedvin og styrkende tonics til at være banebrydende for moderne blends på tværs af vinmarker og regioner i det sydlige Australiens bedste terroirs, herunder Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale og Coonawarra. Jordbunden varierer fra den rige terra rossa over kalksten til forvitret jernsten og alluviale lerlag, som trives under et lunt middelhavsklima afkølet af maritime briser. Under mangeårig ledelse af Chief Winemaker Peter Gago arbejder huset efter Sustainable Winegrowing Australias retningslinjer, mens den umiskendelige husstil bevares via omhyggelig frugtsortering, gæring med nedsænket druekvas (submerged-cap) og struktureret lagring på amerikanske og franske egetræshogsheads. Ikoniske vine som Grange (Bin 95), Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon, Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz og Yattarna Chardonnay udgør selve tinden af eftertragtede samlerobjekter fra Den Nye Verden.
