Bin 389通常被稱為“Baby Grange”，部分原因是因為此酒在Grange前一個年份的木桶中熟成。
由傳奇人物Max Schubert於1960年首次製作面世，通過Cabernet Sauvignon的結構與Shiraz的豐富度結合，令Penfolds樹立良好的聲譽。Bin 389也體現了水果和橡木之間的平衡，帶來Penfolds經典的慷慨中段(mid-palate)。

2021年的Bin 389 Cabernet Sauvignon口感柔滑，與風味緊密結合。不論在香氣或味道上，美國橡木都是它的核心部份。涼爽的季節為這款酒注入了新鮮感和輕盈的感覺。史詩般的強度，呈現橡木味。我過去曾品嚐過30年的Bin 389，它們仍然充滿活力和新鮮感。因此，這年份的葡萄酒應該儲於酒窖中。
Bin 389 is 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 was 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 and oak, Bin 389 highlights the generous mid-palate Penfolds is known for.

The 2021 Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz is creamy and densely packed with flavor (packed!), and the American oak is a core part of the wine, both aromatically and in the mouth...The cooler season has imbued the wine with a freshness and levity... Epic intensity, present oak. Give it time. I have tasted 30-year-old Bin 389s in the past that have still been alive and fresh. So, the cellar is the place for this vintage.
