Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Penfolds

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 97.0

Crafted using only the finest Cabernet Sauvignon from across Coonawarra, Barossa Valley and Wrattonbully, the Penfolds’ estate is known to house some of the oldest Cabernet Sauvignon vines in the world. Made in a similar style to Grange, (but without the Shiraz), the Bin 707 is a reflection of Penfolds’ penchant for creating rich, full-bodied and stylish red wines.

Inspired by Penfolds’ first chief winemaker – Max Schubert’s – desire to make ageworthy reds, the Bin 707 is one of the famous South Australian estate’s poster-boy wines. For long, Cabernet Sauvignon was mostly used for blending, but following its inaugural vintage in 1964, this outstanding wine reveals the power and elegance of Cabernet Sauvignon.

Following fermentation and maceration, the wine is aged in a combination of new American oak barrels, a signature of the Penfolds style, and seasoned French oak. This aging process, which typically extends for approximately 18 months, imparts structure and complexity while allowing the wine to evolve and mature gracefully.

In your glass, Penfolds Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon unveils its deep garnet hue, compete with aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, and a subtle hint of tobacco leaf. On the palate, it is rich and powerful, with a velvety texture and firm, well-integrated tannins. Flavours of ripe dark fruits, dark chocolate, and a touch of eucalyptus are woven seamlessly, leading to a long, lingering finish.

Sourced from McLaren Vale (41%), Coonawarra, Barossa Valley and Padthaway this vintage, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Bin 707 spent 18 months in 100% new American oak hogsheads prior to bottling. Scents of vanilla, cedar and celery seed seamlessly swirl around dark notions of cassis, plum, coffee and cocoa. Theres a touch of mint, but it fits well within the context of the wine. Full-bodied, concentrated and rich, this wine looks to have at least two decades ahead of it. The finish is truly special, with beguiling hints of maple syrup balanced by a smooth, enveloping wash of softly dusty tannins.

Showing strong varietal aromas and rich texture, this is more restrained and carefully measured than the lively Bin 407 from the same vintage. This model is all about the slow, even flow of luscious blackberry and plum flavours wrapped in red earth and chocolate, before tannins gently envelop the back-palate to ensure a graceful, gentle landing. A very complete package for such a young Cabernet. Released at AU$650.
