Lunar New Year Penfolds Bin 389 - Limited Year of the Horse Edition

Limited Edition Lunar New Year of the Horse Penfolds Bin 389 Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz 750ml

These limited-edition range will be professionally engraved with Kung Hei Fat Choi and it includes Gold Premium Embossing (RRP $25). The Chinese text "Gong Xi Fa Cai" in Mandarin or "Kung Hei Fat Choi" in Cantonese translates to wishing someone you care about a year of prosperity and good fortune.

Balance of the sweet (cabernet) and the savoury (shiraz).
Possesses what has now often been referred to as a black forest cake flavour profile.  Darker fruits and closer to that of a black cherry liqueur than a cream de cassis component of Kir.

Flavours of roasted beetroot a venison sauce beetroot reduction  similar texturally to a congealed sweet fat (a custardy emulsion/film not a grainy paste).
Oak and tannins absorbed. Both are certainly present, yet not at all demanding their own space on this Bin 389 stage.

Substantial, intense.
