• 8. Penfolds, Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz, 2017, McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, Padthaway
and Wrattonbully, Australia
Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz. 14.5% ABV. 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 was the wine that helped forge Penfolds reputation with red
wine drinkers by combining the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the richness of Shiraz. Exemplifying the
judicious balance of fruit and oak, Bin 389 highlights the generous mid-palate Penfolds in known for. [£61]
• 9. Penfolds, St Henri, 2016, Barossa Valley, Adelaide Hills, McLaren Vale, Clare Valley,
Coonawarra and Magill Estate, Australia
100% Shiraz. 14.5% ABV. St Henri is a time-honoured and alternative expression of Shiraz, and an intriguing
counterpoint to Grange. It is unusual among high quality Australian red wines as it does not rely on any new
oak. St Henri is rich and plush when young, gaining soft, earthy, mocha-like characters as it ages. It is matured
in old, 1,460 litre vats that allow the wine to develop, imparting minimal, if any oak character. [£95]
• 10. Penfolds, Father Grand Tawny, NV, South Australia
18.5% ABV. With compelling quality and provenance, Penfolds Father Grand Tawny is a tribute to over 170
years of Penfolds winemaking excellence. A blend of outstanding wines matured in seasoned small oak
casks, achieving a minimum average blended age of ten years. The combination of extended maturation and
Penfolds extensive experience in crafting fine Tawny wines, has resulted in a wine with concentration, vitality,
exceptional balance of fruit, nutty oak age complexity and distinctive spirit. All of these elements culminate in
a balanced, clean and lingering tight finish. [£20]
