Decanter Magazine Review
Rated 95
This Californian version of the Great Australian Blend, combining Cabernet Sauvignon with Shiraz (grown from Penfolds' South Australian vine cuttings) strikes immediate notes of familiarity. There's its spicy nose and easy harmony on the palate, seamlessly melding savoury comfort over a melange of rich red, blue and black fruit. Each component does its necessary work the Cabernet bringing chew and texture and Shiraz giving a comforting cuddle until the blackberry grunt returns to deliver a stern final bass note. Drinking Window: 2022-2034.
Wine Tasting Notes
Named for our original California vineyard, the Creston "600" Ranch, Penfolds Bin 600 Cabernet Shiraz is intrinsically linked to the American Dream we embarked on more than 20 years ago. Today, Bin 600 is made with grapes grown from the original heritage selection of vine cuttings we first planted back in 1998 - a taste of the esteemed Kalimna and Magill Estate vineyards, brought to America in a signature Penfolds blend.

- COLOR - Garnet core with a cherry-red rim.
- NOSE - Ample, indulgent. A "European" savory aroma profile, refined, inviting. Spicy marinated olives, fetta, semi-dried tomatoes. Coppa cured pork, saucisson sec. An exotic deviation towards Thai red curry paste, freshly ground by mortar and pestle. Thyme flowers, lavender, violets. Slow cooked comfort food, braised lamb with winter root vegetables. Barley and mushroom risotto. Concentrated bone broth, beef consomme.
- PALATE - A glossy and resolved palate, malt and toast. Generous, sweet fruits. The sweet American oak wraps around the core of dark fruits encapsulating everything the wine holds within. When the oak bubble is pierced, a burst of custard, goji berries, medjool dates and choc-malt creaminess is released. Oregano, hazelnut and cinnamon season the palate. Structurally, the wine flares rather than focusses to a finish. A clarity to the tannins, a resolved palate.
- GRAPE VARIETY - Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz
- SOURCING - Napa Valley, Sonoma, Paso Robles
- ALCOHOL - 14.5%
