Penfolds Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz

Region :
McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, Padthaway and Wrattonbully

Grape :
Cabernet Sauvignon 54%, Shiraz 46%

Tasting Notes :
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 in known for.
