Critic tasting note: "Sometimes referred to as a “Baby Grange,â€?Penfolds has made Bin 389 in 47 consecutive vintages. The 2004—a blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon and 47% Shiraz—is rich and full-bodied, with vanilla and spice framing cassis fruit. Picks up hints of chocolate, cinnamon and clove on the dusty, firm finish. Drink 2010â€?020." - 89/100, Wine Enthusiast
Producer Tasting Notes
COLOUR Vibrant blood-red with a staining dark core. NOSE Complete. Initially difficult to separate aromatic components. Must be Bin 389! With aeration, an evocative barrel-ferment character separates above, prune/fig/dates/quince beneath, bridged by soy/hoisin sauce notes. A pronounced freshness is immediately apparent. Scents of char-grilled, Italian vegetables (zucchini, eggplant) fleetingly distract. Stylish, and regardless of whether either ee or oo are used, both breeding and brooding are apt descriptors! PALATE Full-bodied. A vinous web of cola, newly-tanned leather and dark-berried fruits. Minimal structural weave �little flavour space to fill, no gaps. Cabernet and Shiraz dovetail effortlessly. Vibrant, with a tangy freshness augmented by sculptured tannins, lively acidity, and respectful oak. Length, weight and texture sit well. Embellishment not required. Tasting is.
