PENFOLDS BIN 389

Bin 389 is often referred to as the “Poor Man’s Grange” or “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 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. An exotic and unctuous mix of dates, prunes, and other MiddleEastern dried fruits. Spices abound – musk, mustard powder, curry vanillin, Moroccan spices; dried herb. Cabernet and Shiraz varietal

fruits tussle for attention.
