2013 Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz

Immediately Bin 389 – varieties and regional sources have coalesced. Moreover, still needs time to decompress.

Not a 'modern-era' style of Bin 389…harks back to some memorable vintages from the 80's and 90's.

A blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon and 47% Shiraz, the 2014 Cabernet/Shiraz Bin 389 sports a youthful, deep garnet-purple color.

Its Cabernet component dominates the nose, bursting with cassis, menthol and violets with anise and mocha in the background.

Rich, full, soft and velvety, the palate packs a punch and it finishes long and uncomplicated.
