Description

Penfolds Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz 2019
Bin 389 is often referred to as the ‘Baby Grange’, partly because the components of the wine are aged in the same barrels that aged the previous vintage of Grange. First made in 1960 by the legendary Max Schubert, this was the wine that helped forge Penfold’s solid reputation with red wine connoisseurs who combined the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the richness of Shiraz. Bin 389 also exemplifies the judicious balance of fruit and oak.

History Bin 389 is one of the great red wines in Australia. First produced in 1960, its history is linked to the development of Grange and Max Schubert’s ambition to create a ‘dynasty of wines that all bear an unmistakable resemblance to one another’. Named after its original binning compartment at Magill Cellars, Bin 389 is the most famous wine in the Australian secondary wine market because of its heritage, consistency and reputation.
