Penfolds Barossa Valley Explorer Pack
There’s nothing quite like the . Famed for its bold Shiraz and rich winemaking heritage, this iconic region also sits on some of the oldest soils on the planet – over 200 million years in the making.
With the limited-edition duo Penfolds Barossa Valley Explorer Pack, we’re showcasing two standout interpretations of this legendary region. Penfolds Bin 150 offers a modern, stylish take on Shiraz, grown in the iron-rich soils of Marananga. Meanwhile, Penfolds Bin 138 brings a softer, more approachable edge – a plush blend of Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro that speaks to the Rhône Valley’s time-honoured blending tradition.
Bin 138 Shiraz Grenache Mataro – Inspired by the classic Southern Rhone blends, Bin 138 is a warm, generous wine that brings together the spice of Shiraz, the red-fruited brightness of Grenache, and the earthy depth of Mataro (also known as Mourvedre). The fruit comes from Barossa vines – some planted as far back as 1895 – adding incredible character and history to the bottle.
- Expect a swirl of dark cherries, plums, cracked pepper, and a savoury undercurrent of dried herbs.
- A touch of vanilla oak rounds it out.
- It’s full-bodied yet supple, with silky tannins and a lingering, balanced finish. A great pick for those who love bold reds with a bit of charm.
Bin 150 Marananga Shiraz – Born in Marananga, right near the heart of the Barossa floor, Bin 150 shows off the power and elegance that this sub-region does so well. This Shiraz is rich, structured and unmistakably Penfolds – concentrated dark fruit, hints of liquorice and spice, all wrapped in layers of fine-grained oak.
- On the palate, it’s dense and brooding, but beautifully refined.
- Think blackberries, damson plums and Christmas cake, woven with a thread of cedar and firm tannins that promise great cellaring potential.
Together, these two wines are a brilliant snapshot of the Barossa and . Classic, confident, and deeply rooted in place.
