Penfolds Cabernet Shiraz Bin 389 2001
South Australia, AustraliaOpen minty, menthol (more than we remember) saddle leather nose , vanilla, peppery, tarry, cassis nose with some green bean and olive streaks. Rich, ripe, round, concentrated palate with very peppery, spicy, coffee vanilla flavours with a minty, cassis, black berry, mocha finish. Elegant, dry tannins are evident on the warm finish but as usual well balanced with fine potential to age over the next 5-8 years. Very young but certainly a top 389.Tasted: 18 February 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $36.95 | 750ml | Specialty |
