Penfolds Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon, South Australia, 2006

Bottle Size: 75cl

Region: Australia

Colour: Red

Style: Still

Grape Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon

The Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon was aged for 16 months in new American oak hogsheads. A glass-coating opaque purple, it displays aromas of pain grille, pencil lead, mulberry, spice box, and black currant. Medium to full-bodied and seriously structured, it has the fruit to complement its frame. On the palate, espresso and chocolate make an appearance along with layers of savory black fruits. Dense and exceptionally lengthy it will continue to unwind for another 6-8 years and drink well from 2015 to 2031. Tasted December 2009. 94 Points Jay S Miller, The Wine Advocate
