Red WinePenfolds Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz 2021
Treasury Wine Estates (Penfolds, est. 1844)
Bin 389 is known as “Baby Grange” for a reason: the wine is matured in the same American oak hogsheads that previously held Penfolds Grange, Australia’s most celebrated wine. That secondhand Grange influence — a ghost of Shiraz complexity — adds depth you can’t get any other way. Max Schubert created the first Bin 389 in 1960, and it’s been in continuous production ever since, blending Cabernet’s structure with Shiraz’s generosity. At $40–55, it delivers a taste of the Penfolds house style at a fraction of Grange’s price. This is arguably Australia’s greatest value red.
