OVERVIEW
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.
BIN 389, A PERENNIAL OVERACHIEVER IN ANY VINTAGE. INDEED, A VERY GOOD FOLLOW ON TO THE 2018 BIN 389.– PETER GAGO, PENFOLDS CHIEF WINEMAKER

TYSON STELZER
" There is a resolute conviction to Bin 389, a confident assuredness that transcends its seasons like no other wine around it in the Penfolds portfolio, its consistency grounded in the almost even marriage of its two constituents. 2019 exemplifies this, a seamless harmony between the tension and fine-boned structure of cabernet and the body and depth of shiraz, yet embraced here in seamlessly interlocked harmony. A sea of glorious Penfolds tannins float a finish both expansive and far-reaching. Another grand 389 for the cellar! "
HUON HOOKE
" Deep, dense, glass staining red/purple colour. The bouquet is very savoury mixing earthy, spicy, blackstrap licorice and toasty-barrel nuances, the palate savoury and drying, the more sapid and less fruity aspects typical of of the Bin 389 style. Great intensity, concentration and focus, elegant, taut and long-lingering. A classic 389, ageworthy and very much in the style groove. "
ANDREW CAILLARD MW
" A dark horse vintage with the shape of Bin 389 and the torque of Bin 707.A fascinating but quite different Bin 389 revealing the light and shade of multi-regional sourcing and the hallmarks of the Penfolds House Style. Should last the distance. "

TASTE DESCRIPTION
COLOUR
Darkened deep red
NOSE
Ample self-standing fruits already beginning to yield to other vinous intents …
Cola, grated chocolate and cappuccino dust bind with juniper and spices.
A flash of brown sugar and liquorice – not quite in the Marsala spectrum – instead, brandy impressions replaced by blood orange-rind.
Oak somewhat partially
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 – mouth-watering, succulent acidity. This acidity interplays with integrated tannins – coating the mouth and adding
