Aromas of cassis and blackberry develop alongside dark chocolate, tobacco leaf and subtle floral notes, creating depth without losing the variety's distinctive structure. The palate is full-bodied and layered, with firm oak spice and fine-grained tannins supporting the dark fruit through a long, persistent finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBalancing intensity with precision, the 2023 vintage reflects the distinctive Bin 707 style, where ripe Cabernet fruit meets the depth and structure associated with extended cellaring. Its interplay of black fruit, savoury spice and measured tannin gives the wine considerable scope to evolve, gradually revealing greater complexity as it matures. A benchmark expression for collectors of Australian Cabernet Sauvignon, it is well suited to slow-roasted beef, a standing rib roast or richly flavoured game, and rewards patience for those who prefer their Cabernet with greater bottle age.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"919\" data-end=\"1038\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"919\" data-end=\"936\"\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"936\" data-end=\"939\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"943\" data-end=\"946\"\u003e– Deep classic Cabernet\u003cbr data-start=\"969\" data-end=\"972\"\u003eAromas of cassis, cedar and graphite beneath a subtle floral edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1040\" data-end=\"1158\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1046\" data-end=\"1049\"\u003e– Full‑bodied presence\u003cbr data-start=\"1071\" data-end=\"1074\"\u003eConcentrated black fruits, blackcurrant, dark plum with firm oak spice and layering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1160\" data-end=\"1263\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1166\" data-end=\"1169\"\u003e– Long and structured\u003cbr data-start=\"1190\" data-end=\"1193\"\u003eFine-grained tannins taper into a persistent finish with savoury grip.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"177\" data-end=\"582\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"177\" data-end=\"200\"\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"200\" data-end=\"203\"\u003e\u003cem data-start=\"203\" data-end=\"529\"\u003e“Deep, impenetrable crimson hues.

It spent 16 months in new American oak hogsheads. An opaque maroon colour, there are notes of dusty red earth here. Chocolate and tobacco leaves, soy, dried herbs, florals and aniseed. Hints of animal skins add to the complexity. There is serious intensity and focus, exemplary balance. With time in the glass, notes of both red and black fruits become ever more dominant, primarily blackcurrants and raspberries, backed by a slippery texture and satiny tannins with real persistence on a very long finish. Finesse and power. The nose is gorgeous, the palate even better.

On one side, there is a level of exotic and floral allure, with notes of incense, essential oils, and dried lavender; on the other, an Old World‑like reminder of cooking herbs, garrigue, and rolled tobacco leaf. Yet unashamedly Australian all the way through. You can savour and touch each and every element on the palate, thanks to the continuity of fruit, the vibrancy, balance, presence and weight of the tannins. It will last decades while already showing a great deal.”\u003c\/em\u003e – Lisa Cardelli, \u003cem data-start=\"1633\" data-end=\"1659\"\u003ePenfolds Collection 2025\u003c\/em\u003e, 97 points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1673\" data-end=\"2480\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cem data-start=\"1673\" data-end=\"2421\"\u003e“Such a bold statement of new American oak seems somehow old‑fashioned in this day and age of Australian cabernet, and yet there is a comfortable assurance about the inimitable Bin 707 model, promising that the woodwork will find its place with sufficient patience. The purity and precision of cassis and blackcurrant fruit on display is something to behold. In inimitable Bin 707 form, new American oak rises to the auspicious occasion, propelling and uplifting to mighty effect and monumental tannin impact. Fruit and oak sit apart for now, but each in their rightful place, and, as ever, promise great things indeed in a very long time to come.
