Bin 2 was first released in 1960, yet was temporarily discontinued in Australia in the 1970s at the height of the white wine boom. The original Bin 2 was an ‘Australian Burgundy’ style (despite its Rhône varieties) – typically a soft, medium-bodied wine based on shiraz. The Bin 2 blend of shiraz and mataro is still relatively uncommon in Australian table wines. Also known as monastrell or mourvèdre, mataro was introduced to Australia in the 1830s. Often used in fortified wine production, this grape is widely planted in the Barossa Valley. It is valued by winemakers for its blending attributes, adding complexity and palate grip. Interest in Bin 2 has grown as the popularity of traditional Rhône varieties and blends continues to flourish.
Tasting Notes
Abundant fleshy cherries, wild berries and cranberries jump out of the glass. There’s hints of earth, spice and Bay leaf, but the lifted fruit is the main act. The wine is light bodied, and cherry-berry flavours follow from the nose. The palate displays lovely fresh, vibrant fruit and is soft and fleshy with velvety tannins.
