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 Rhne 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 mourvdre, 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 Rhne varieties and blends continues to flourish.

The enticing aromatics are amplified on the palate.
Loose-knit and lacy tannins provide structural foundations,
with juicy red fruit acidity giving rise to a balanced
medium-bodied wine.
Further complex savoury characters of roasted celeriac and
fresh vegetable consomm create another level of complexity
