Often referred to as 'Baby Grange', 2018 has made a superb 389. It is wonderfully balanced, with fresh acidity lifting the ripe, dark fruit character: soft, red plums and dark cherries. The tannins are firm but pleasant, with well-integrated oak (partly from second-use Grange barrels) giving complexity and great texture. The freshness returns on the finish, demanding another sip. Impressive now, this will continue to develop brilliantly over the coming years.

A blend of 57% cabernet sauvignon and 43% shiraz, this has a very impressively complete feel, a hallmark of the 2018 vintage wines, and there’s a myriad of characters with cabernet’s cedary and gently herbal notes sitting atop a core of rich red-plum and dark-berry shiraz fruit aromas. So integrated. The palate has a very silky texture, so plush and polished with a wealth of rich and intense dark-plum, dark-berry and blackcurrant flavors. The oak is completely soaked with ripe, fresh fruit. This is a great Bin 389. Drink over the next two decades. Screw cap.
