WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Instantly fresh and fleshy. Some overt single-varietal Cabernet and Shiraz fruits still sit separate. Expected licorice, stewed plum and blackcurrant, with dark chocolate and mocha in the background. Savory and salivating – mouth-watering, succulent acidity. This acidity interplays with integrated tannins – coating the mouth and adding impressive length.
Blend: 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 47% Shiraz
TASTING NOTES:
The superb quality of fruit allocated in this luscious blend – dubbed by many as ‘baby Grange’ – represents probably the best value to be found in the Penfolds portfolio, and is the shining star of the reds in the 2022 Collection. Its rich and plush mixture of plum, black cherry and mulberry flavours are slapped into line by a stern tannin drill sergeant, so that it finishes cleanly and absolutely correctly. Generous, approachable and complete, it tells a very satisfying wine story.

Looking in on the 389 can be “‘can be,” she says, parenthetically) a good insight into what we can expect from the upcoming Grange. Now, they are very different wines, no question, however, stylistically they have much in common and the illumination into the season that birthed the wines in each instance. Here, the 2020 Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz has consummate polish and sleek tannins, imbued as they are with graphite, black tea, licorice and resin. The fruit is pure and black and chewy… gorgeous wine. And it lives for decades. This has always been a collector’s dream and continues so through this vintage. Highly recommended.

Very rich, ripe and intense, this has plenty of depth and is one of the strongest statements of Penfolds’ house style. Rich vanillin and sweetly spicy American oak on the nose, with chocolate, blueberry, violet, blackberry and iodine notes. The palate delivers quite approachable and supple texture, smoothly fleshy and inviting. Flavors of blackberry, blackcurrant and mulberry abound. Deep and ripe finish with nutty tannins to close. A blend of McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley and Padthaway. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
