Critic tasting note: "Sometimes referred to as a “Baby Grange,” 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 2010–2020." - 89/100, Wine Enthusiast

- Producer Tasting Notes
-
COLOUR Dense and dark, and, at the time of tasting, still possessing a purple core. NOSE The nose hints at Grange character, necessitating a re-look at the label/bottle! The supportive oak sits beautifully, seamlessly integrated. Stewed plum flavours meshed with notes of cinnamon, nutmeg and whole black peppercorns (not ground). Would nuances of game terrine with pistachio shell be taking it a bit far? Surely not! PALATE The palate is tight and full-bodied, persistent, long and forceful. The wine has mpressive texture, with pronounced, well-defined powdery tannins and oak totally absorbed in a wash of liquorice and berried fruits.
