First made in 1960, by the legendary Max Schubert, this was the wine that helped to build Penfolds solid reputation with red wine drinkers. Combining the structure of Cabernet with the richness of Shiraz, Bin 389 also exemplifies Penfolds skill in judiciously balancing fruit and oak. Now in its sixth decade, 'Baby Grange' asserts its own identity & commands its own following. It continues to evolve, enchant, embrace and excite! Serve blind and surprise. 'From Barossa, Coonawarra, Wrattonbully, Robe, McLaren Vale, Padthaway and the Adelaide Hills. I love the perfumed fruit of slightly floral violet and red berry. This is one of the finest of this great line I have tasted, showing such elegance with the qualities to age very well. It's 51 per cent cabernet and 49 per cent Shiraz. 97/100' - Weekend West, Perth, 16 Mar 2013, by Ray Jordan.
