The Penfolds BIN 2 Shiraz Mataro 2023 (14.5% ABV, 0.75L) is a characterful, modern Australian red wine that impressively reflects the time-honored tradition of the iconic Penfolds winery. For decades, Penfolds' legendary BIN series has stood for precisely crafted blends with distinctive character, structure, and international acclaim.

At 14.5% ABV, this Shiraz Mataro red wine is powerful and full-bodied, yet balanced and precise.
