A magnificent blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz from the very best regions in South Australia, Penfolds Bin 389 is an Australian Classic that helped build the solid reputation of the winery around the world. The robust nature of the Cabernet grape gives tannin structure and body to the wine while the Shiraz provides suppleness of oak and intensity of the spices. Together they become a true Australian icon that always delivers.
Drinking Window: 2021 - 2049
Critic tasting note: "Deep dark ruby, opaque core, violet glints with paler hues at the rim. Scents of ripe blackcurrants, blackberries, a hint of aniseed, peppermint followed by pleasant spiced wood tones. A very complex and inviting bouquet. Taut, elegant, ripe cherries, enchanting sweetness flanked by very well-integrated tannins, white pepper, and a hint of ginger in the aftertaste, mineral-saline finish. A tightly-structured food wine, to be savoured now but with great staying power. The legendary “Baby Grangeʺ (now until 2050)" - 95/100, Falstaff
Vineyard Notes
Padthaway, McLaren Vale, Coonawarra, Wrattonbully, Barossa Valley
Vintage Notes
The South-East growing districts of South Australia enjoyed above-average winter rainfall, while McLaren Vale and the Barossa Valley recorded well below-average. September temperatures were cool with little rainfall resulting in some isolated frost events. Summer was generally hot, with high temperatures delaying veraison. The Barossa Valley experienced 31 days of temperatures exceeding 35°C, while Coonawarra experienced 20 days of temperature greater than 35°C during the months December to March. Irrigation was crucial to keep vines in good health. The proximity of the Southern Ocean played an important role in moderating temperatures in Coonawarra, Wrattonbully and Padthaway, allowing for a high-quality harvest, albeit with smaller yields than average. Although yields were lower, the quality was outstanding with both shiraz and cabernet sauvignon displaying excellent colours, firm tannin profiles and intense flavours.

Producer Tasting NotesAmple self-standing fruits already beginning to yield to other vinous intents ââ‚?Cola, grated chocolate and cappuccino dust bind with juniper and spices. A flash of brown sugar and liquorice ââ‚?not quite in the Marsala spectrum ââ‚?instead, brandy impressions replaced by blood orange-rind. Oak somewhat partially hidden, yet faint scents of cedar and graphite lobby for further bottle maturation. Unabashed (Baby Grange) complexities. On the palate, instantly fresh and fleshy. Some overt single-varietal cabernet and shiraz fruits still sit separate …time will unite.. Expected liquorice, stewed plum and blackcurrant, with dark chocolate and mocha in the background. Savoury and salivating ââ‚?mouth-watering, succulent acidity. This acidity interplays with integrated tannins ââ‚?coating the mouth and adding length...
