Penfolds Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz (With Gift box)
DESCRIPTION
Born from Max Schubert's famed Grange trials in the mid-20th century, Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz is one of Penfolds most sought-after red blend wines. Its distinct personality showcases the benefits of cross-varietal and multi-regional blending, with complex aromatics, palate richness and decades of cellaring capability.
Bin 389 was often referred to as ‘Baby Grange’, in part because components of the wine are matured in the same barrels that held the previous vintage of Grange. First made in 1960 by the legendary Max Schubert, this was the wine that helped forge Penfolds reputation with red wine drinkers by combining the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the richness of Shiraz. Exemplifying the judicious balance of fruit and oak, Bin 389 highlights the generous mid-palate Penfolds is known for.
The palate is immediately enveloped by cocoa powder-like tannins — smooth yet profound in their impact. The wine boasts volumes of Cabernet character, showcasing cool fruits that are well lifted and vibrant. A barrel ferment nuance adds depth without overshadowing the fruit's purity. Sourdough notes bring a rustic edge which complement the lush profiles of plum fruits, blackberry, mulberry, wild cherries and more distinctly tart morello cherries.
