SKU: PENB149CAB21GFT
Penfolds Bin 149 Cabernet Sauvignon seeks out Northern Hemisphere excellence via meticulous vineyard and block selection, reinforced by flagship-worthy South Australian Cabernet Sauvignon. The result is distinctive, and of distinction. Bin 149’s name is derived from the percentage of South Australian Cabernet Sauvignon that was synergistically woven into the inaugural 2018 release. Napa Valley regional sourcing seeks to showcase strong tannic foundations, dark fruit intensity but with the added dimension of a unique “worldly” disposition. Matured in French and American oak, this release highlights Penfolds commitment to quality and winemaking approach.

Palate

Upon tasting, the palate unfolds with a burst of blueberry freshness, balanced by an undercurrent of Sarsaparilla and baking spice. A procession of cherries dipped in dark chocolate parades across the palate, escorted by the rich intensity of mulberries/blackberry coulis. The savoury flavours emerge through radicchio lettuce, adding an intriguing bitter edge that contrasts beautifully with the sweetness above. Layers continue to unfold as danish pastries and panforte integrate with sundried tomato pastry.
