Cassis. Black raspberries. Deep-throated, resounding, reverberating, magnificent. Fruit on a whole new register of resonance. Iridescent splendour. A black pearl of a wine with ruby glow. Breathtaking balance: yin and yang. (TC)

52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 48% Shiraz. Picked before the heat wave that began in March. Black cherry, succulent and sweetly ripe – absolutely bursting with flavour. Still very punchy tannin. Superb purity. Quite aggressive on the finish – really needs time, although that plush fruit is irresistibly come-hither at this young age. (RH)
Deep garnet-purple colored the 2008 Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz is a little restrained on the nose, giving appealing notes of mocha, cloves and chocolate box over a core of blueberries and kirsch. Medium to full bodied, it’s dense and taut in the mouth with a firm structure of chewy tannins and lively acidity, finishing long and purely fruited. Approachable now, it should give pleasure to 2018+. Importer: Treasury Wine Estates, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 259-4500
(52% cabernet sauvignon and 48% shiraz): Deep ruby. Pungent cherry, violet, licorice and herbs on the nose. Dense and chewy, offering bitter cherry and dark chocolate flavors and a hint of candied flowers. Spicy and focused on the very persistent finish, with the cherry note echoing strongly. Nicely concentrated and balanced to age.
