Robert Parker Score: 91 points
Reviewer: Jay S Miller25/02/2009
The 2005 Bin 389 Cabernet Sauvignon (52%)-Shiraz (48%) is crimson-colored with aromas of smoke, tobacco, mineral, black currant, and blackberry. Elegantly styled, it offers racy black fruit flavors, hints of licorice and chocolate, and a lengthy, pure finish. It will profit from 3-4 years of cellaring and will drink well from 2011 to 2020.
