Description
Aged in American oak, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Bin 707 stands out for its bold aromas of vanilla, tobacco and cassis. This year, it's close to 40% each from Coonawarra and McLaren Vale, with smaller proportions from Barossa Valley and the Adelaide Hills. It's full-bodied and rich, with a velvety mouthfeel, great intensity and super length. Yes, it's embryonic, but it's not unapproachable, much like any other high-quality New World Cabernet these days, with the ability to age for two decades or more. WA 98

The 2016 Penfolds Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon is a testament to the mastery of winemaking and the richness of South Australian terroir. This wine exudes a complex bouquet of red currant, red licorice, and floral notes, intertwined with mocha, mint, and a subtle meatiness. The influence of 20 months in new American oak barrels imparts a distinctive oak spice. On the palate, it presents a poised balance of power and elegance, with a velvety, almost creamy texture, and is structured by fine-grained, herb-tinged tannins. This wine promises a journey of flavors and a long, rewarding finish, suggesting a potential to age gracefully through 2039.
