Bin 138 draws its inspiration from the wines of Southern Rhône, where shiraz, grenache and mataro (mourvèdre) are blended in varying proportions to create full – bodied wines possessing rich and heady perfume. Each year fruit for Bin 138 is sourced from old Barossa Valley vines (some more than 100 years old) and then matured for 12 to 15 months in seasoned oak hogsheads to allow the different varietals to shine through. The first vintage release of this varietal blend was the 1992, labelled ‘Old Vine Barossa Valley’ – it was then elevated to Bin status with the 1998 vintage.

Probably the worst red I've had for a while-probably heat affected

With a fruity aroma, the 2013 vintage is very robust, offering peppery flavours along with cherry, raspberry and plum accents. Tannins coat the tongue perfectly to create a very smooth, enjoyable experience. Best enjoyed alongside a hearty roast dinner or savoured on its own for its fruity richness.
