Description

Bin 2, originally released in 1960, is a remarkable wine blend of shiraz and mataro, characterized by a soft, medium-bodied 'Australian Burgundy' style. Despite its Rhône varieties, it faced a temporary discontinuation during Australia's white wine boom in the 1970s. The combination of shiraz and mataro remains relatively rare among Australian table wines, offering a unique and captivating taste. Mataro, also known as monastrell or mourvèdre, has been cultivated in the Barossa Valley since the 1830s and is widely used in fortified wine production. Today, Bin 2 continues to enchant wine enthusiasts with its storied past and exceptional flavor profile, making it a testament to the timeless art of winemaking.

Tasting Profile

Nose
A first-impressional glimpse of red-fruited high notes - propelling mulberry, damson plums and boysenberry. Following, scents of pastrami (lightly coated in cardamon, rosemary?) and moist slices of silverside sans mustard.
