Description

For sale is a legendary bottle of Penfolds Special Bin 60A, vintage 2004.

Bin 60A is PENFOLDS' most successful show wine ever, having won 19 trophies and 33 gold medals in a relatively brief period. The 1962 Bin 60A is considered by many to be the greatest Australian wine ever made. The 2004 vintage is only the second time that Penfolds have produced a Bin 60A - so it really is a once in a generation wine.

Penfolds released the following:

In 2004 parcels of wine were identified as showing similar characteristics to the 1962 Bin 60A. A wine was made paying homage to the 1962 and was sold en primeur - PENFOLDS was the first Australian winery to use this selling method made famous by the chateaux of Bordeaux.

Robert Parker review as folllows:

Robert Parker scored the wine 98pts and commented "The 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon/Shiraz Bin 60A Kalimna is a blend of Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon (56%) and Barossa Shiraz (44%). Its blackberry, blueberry, tar, lead pencil shavings, licorice, and spice box-scented bouquet is followed by a wine boasting an unctuous texture buttressed by decent acidity as well as fabulous extract and richness. This stunning blend should have a minimum of three decades of aging potential and be a true collector’s item for many years to come."

This wine is now extremely rare and very expensive when you can find it. Berry Bros are the only merchants in the UK with any for sale and they have a box of 6 bottles listed on their site for £2,900.00 in bond - that is close to £600.00 a bottle after duty and VAT etc.

Rather than auction this wine, I am listing it with a very competetive buy now price to enable a serious Penfolds collector to buy it without having to hang around for an auction to end.

The wine was originally purchased by me from Hailsham Cellars and has been stored in a proper wine store at 14 degrees ever since. The bottle is in perfect condition and comes beautifully packaged.

I can not accept payment by Paypal. This is due to their excessive fees, which sellers usually pass onto their buyers. Bank transfers are instant, free and just as secure. I am happy to take cheques from UK banks or cash if collecting in person.
