Bin 389 was often referred to as Baby Grange, in part because components of the wine are matured in the same barrels that held the previous vintage of Grange. First made in 1960, by the legendary Max Schubert, this is the wine that helped to forge Penfolds solid reputation with red wine drinkers combining the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the richness of Shiraz. Bin 389 also exemplifies the judicious balance of fruit & oak.

Colour:
Deep dense magenta. Nose: The very first impression? Instantly Penfolds. Some barrel-ferment nuances perhaps? A formic lift, V.A., regressive oak? Maybe all listed are guilty partners! Higher notes reveal custard tart & brle, courting meaty pan-scrapings/juices. Yet beneath, a darker edge black pudding, sweetbread, asphalt. Moreover, not just an offal offering an aromatic veil of satsuma plum, fig & quince paste aromatics liberally sprinkled above.! Palate: Enticing, inviting. A taste continuum of assorted flavours & textures. A spoil of fruits meshed with a grain-like paste chaff/oats/barley/wheat germ. At once chewy & succulent, heightened by a mouth-watering acidity & overt 2015 elongated tannins. Oak barely perceivable. An interesting package whereupon nothing stands out! A balanced completeness!

Nose: Mint/dry herb (rosemary/sage) varietal reminiscences. Wafts of Chorizo (red) sausage; tomato & red capsicum pizza base/bruschetta. Integrated, perfumed oak (polished teak, brown boot polish). Palate: Green olive & a market garden foray broccoli/spinach/broad beans/broad leaf legumes. Fresh acidity coupled with non-shy tannins induce structural linearity/definition/liveliness. A firm finish. A persistent afterglow. Oak well hidden, awoken with a swirl. Launched with the 1990 vintage in 1993, Bin 407 was developed in response to the increasing availability of high quality Cabernet Sauvignon fruit. Inspired by Bin 707, Bin 407 offers varietal definition & approachability, yet with structure & depth of flavour. Textbook Cabernet Sauvignon, the varietal expressive Bin 407 highlights the rewards of Penfolds multi-region, multi vineyard blending, with a core of ripe fruit supported by sensitive use of French & American oak Peak Drinking: Now to 2025. ...

Perfumed high notes propelled by glaced cherry, red jelly crystal aromatics. Floral aromas & cedar beckon attention. A spike of chocolate-mint reminds instantly of its regional source. Bircher muesli mix, verging towards more primal earthy, hay-shed. Peak Drinking: 2016 to 2030. ...

The Bin 311 style typically exhibits a mineral acid backbone, complemented by barrel fermentation & maturation in seasoned oak. Minimal filtration is employed, preserving elegant fruit flavours. Bin 311 Chardonnay is sourced to style from a single, cool-climate (and some would say risky, marginal) region. In 2015, fruit sourcing has again come from Tumbarumba one of Australias most exciting, cool-climate, high-altitude, viticultural districts. Penfolds has worked with Chardonnay from Tumbarumba since the early 1990s. ...

The palate is juicy & dark, with some spicy liquorice, juicy cherry, raspberry syrup, blackcurrant pastilles, & herby notes. Green leaf & smoke on the finish. Penfolds Cellar Reserve Mataro is entirely sourced from the Penfolds historic Kalimna vineyard in the Barossa Valley. Planted in 1964, Block 25 has been an important source for many Penfolds Bin wines. The 2010 vintage conditions saw healthy vines delivering below average crops which resulted in wines with concentrated fruit characters & excellent colour depth. Matured in both seasoned & new American oak for a period of 16 months, this generous wine is a standout from this famous Penfolds block. Whilst drinking well at release, this wine will continue to improve with careful cellaring. Peak Drinking: Now to 2020. ...
