Note di degustazione
Smells like peonies, hot summer midnight, after the rain, and the first candy note on this vertical of Bin 389s. The first wine to show a slightly childish naivety (not in a bad way, just a young way). Gauche tannins, strong, muscled, beautifully sculpted, but still haven't found their way of moving, not quite yet coordinated. Dark-blue fruit. Liquorice and fennel and anise. Great concentration, complexity and potency but it feels far from ready to drink. (TC)

The Shiraz leads the fruit, but the structure of the Cabernet backs it all up. It's still a little reticent in aromatic terms. Tight but full of potential. More to revisit. There's no question of its complexity or intensity – but it needs time. (RH)
Full bottle 1,435 g. 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 47% Shiraz, from Padthaway, McLaren Vale, Coonawarra, Wrattonbully and Barossa Valley. Matured for 12 months in American oak hogsheads (25% new). Dark, glowing purplish crimson. The Cabernet element is pretty dominant on the nose. Then the palate is full of rich, ripe blackcurrant fruit before finishing with really tight, dry tannins. This is one for the cellar. Do not attempt to open this for quite a while! (JR)
Shows a very strident, oak-driven nose with cedar and spice thatâs overlaid on ripe blackcurrant, red plum and cherry. Pepper and cocoa powder, too. The palate has a sinewy feel with intense summer berries and plums, as well as strong blackcurrant character. Curated to a brazen style with strong tannins. A blend of 53% cabernet sauvignon and 47% shiraz, matured in American-oak hogsheads (300 litres - 25% new). A blend of Padthaway, McLaren Vale, Coonawarra, Wrattonbully and Barossa Valley. Drink over the next decade. Screw cap.
