Key Features:

  • 🍇 Vintage: 2016
  • 🏞️ Origin: South Australia, Australia
  • 🍇 Grape Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz
  • 🍷 Flavor Profile: Bin 389 presents a compelling nose of dark berries, cassis, and hints of chocolate and spice, layered over subtle oak nuances. The palate is robust, with a perfect balance of fruit, tannins, and acidity, leading to a long, satisfying finish. The wine’s structure and depth are complemented by the smooth integration of oak, derived from its maturation in American oak barrels previously used for Grange.
  • 🌿 Terroir Influence: Sourced from several of South Australia's premium vineyards, the diverse terroirs contribute to the wine's complexity, offering a spectrum of flavors and textures that are seamlessly woven together by Penfolds' expert winemakers.
  • 🍇 Winemaking Process: The meticulous selection of grapes, fermentation under strict conditions, and careful blending create this harmonious expression. Aging in American oak barrels, including those that housed the previous vintage of Grange, imparts additional layers of complexity and the signature Penfolds character.
  • 🍽️ Food Pairing: The Bin 389 is versatile, pairing well with a range of dishes from grilled meats and barbecued ribs to richly flavored cheeses and dark chocolate desserts. Its robust profile also makes it a splendid companion to hearty stews and pasta dishes.
  • 🍷 Serving Recommendations: To best appreciate the wine’s intricate layers, serve at 16-18°C (60-64°F). Decanting for an hour before serving can enhance its aromatics and flavor profile, offering a more engaging tasting experience.

Indulge in the 2016 Penfolds Bin 389 Cabernet - Shiraz, a wine that not only reflects the rich heritage of Australian winemaking but also stands as a beacon of Penfolds' winemaking excellence. A bottle of Bin 389 is an invitation to experience the depth and elegance of a truly iconic blend.
