A tribute to Verona and the 3,000 love messages left daily in the courtyard overlooking the balcony at Juliet's old casa, this is a soft and spicy, velvety red made from grapes pre-dried in wooden trays.

A ruby red coloured wine. Lovely fresh perfumes of currants and wild cherries and hints of spices and vanilla. On the palate it is well balanced with a long, tasty finish.

It has aromas and flavours suggestive of blackberries, raspberries, purple plums, vanilla pod, cigar-box and liquorice. On the palate there is a dense core of bright, ripe, mouth-filling fruit which is supported by an ample tannins.

The palate is generously full and fruity with plush velvety tannins that lead on to a lingering tangy aftertaste. While ready to drink on release we expect this wine to improve for several years and live for well over a decade with careful cellaring.

Upon release the wine is bright ruby in colour. There is a teasing array of vibrant red fruit on the nose including raspberry, pomegranate, cherry and plum. Spice and herbal notes, as well as a savoury underlay, add to the wine's complexity. While the palate has generous fruit weight and velvety tannins, it is balanced with refreshing acidity and a structure that gives the wine classic North Canterbury tension and pinosity.

True to its Coonawarra roots, this vintage exhibits a distinctive ferrous red grip on the palate - a hallmark of the region's famed terra rossa soil. Mineral undertones add depth without detracting from the wine's approachability. Firm grippy tannins are well integrated, providing structure while allowing French oak spice nuances to emerge gently alongside hints of cola. Cedar spice weaves through the profile, joined by tart cranberry and redcurrant flavours. Subtle inflections of white pepper mix with classic cigar box aromas and a dusting of paprika for added dimension. Rounded out by a suggestion of rare roast beef that lingers on the finish.

Bin 150 Marananga Shiraz is a sub-regional expression that is unmistakably Penfolds in character. Conceived from the ancient soils around the township of Marananga, located very close to the centre of the Barossa Valley. The warm dry conditions, rich red clay and sandy loam soils provide the backbone to some of the Barossa Valley's best-known wines. Bin 150 is a contemporary shiraz alternative, a sub-regional offer framed by a mix of oaks; French and American, old and new, small and large - crafted the 'Penfolds way'. As we have come to anticipate, satsuma plums and boysenberries provide a varietal/regional signature. Grippy, ripe and rich tannins anchor a tightly structured frame. Freshly sawn oak. Rye sourdough crust - still hot out of the oven. Toasted pumpkin seeds on grilled haloumi. Sarsaparilla, black cardamom pods and ethereal nutmeg spice.
