2007 Penfolds Bin 407 Cabernet Sauvignon

94 Points - Jeremy Oliver, Oliver's Wines

“The merit of Wynns' radical transformation of its key vineyard sites is proven in the distinctive brightness of the colour, aromas and flavours of this wine.”

92 Points - James Halliday, Wine Companion

“Strong red-purple; has clear blackcurrant fruit, some notes of chocolate (a McLaren Vale component?) and strong tannins - are those tannins the reason for the very ordinary cork? Needs time.”

“This is a fine, elegant, well-ripened wine of medium-weight and medium quality. It tastes of olives and blackcurrant and spicy, cedary, musky French oak. It has fresh, varietal appeal and a nice clip of tannin. It was a difficult vintage and they've produced a decent wine from it. There's a musky, vanillin note to the aftertaste that is pure Penfolds. I'd expect it to score slightly higher in time. Penfolds Rewards of Patience Edition 7 Medium-deep crimson. Blackcurrant, mocha, herb garden aromas with roses, ironstone notes. Classic wine with black olive, cassis/blackcurrant fruit flavours and fine, muscular leafy tannins. Finishes chalky firm and tight. An early-drinking style but should hold for a while.”
