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 is the wine that helped to forge Penfolds solid reputation with red wine drinkers combining the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the richness of Shiraz. Bin 389 also exemplifies the judicious balance of fruit and oak.
Tasting Notes:
Red-currant and savory black olive notes followed by a generous mid-palate embalmed by integrated plush and slurry ripe tannins and notes of crème de cassis and blueberry fruits.
