Wine Summary Image

After missing the 2011 vintage (when fruit for the required style and quality was not available), this remarkable house-style red returns with a release that retains a secure place among the ranks of Australia's finest Cabernets. Full-bodied, mouth-filling, complex, layered - Penfolds' 2012 Bin 707 is big in every way. Characters of blackcurrant and just-baked, spiced, chocolate fondant dominate with plenty of natural fruit sweetness. The tannins are present, but not overwhelming. The exceptional make and vintage conditions of the '12 will ensure this wine will live on for decades.

Expert Reviews

98 points

Sourced from Coonawarra, Padthaway, Barossa Valley, Wrattonbully and the Adelaide Hills; the fermentation is completed in new American oak hogsheads, whereafter it is matured in those hogsheads for 14 months. There is amazing depth to the purple-crimson colour. Its full-bodied colours are nailed to the mast immediately the wine enters the mouth; it's strange how the cabernet of this wine marries with the American oak, providing the ultimate Christmas cake of aromas and flavours; one of its great strengths is the tannin structure that gives the wine its exceptional length (and mouthfeel along the way).

Winery Profile

The 1964 Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon was Penfolds’ first commercial release of a single cabernet-based wine. Today, Bin 707 is justifiably regarded as one of Australia’s most important cabernets.

The winemaking philosophy and barrel maturation of Bin 707 is almost identical to Grange. The Bin 707 style combines intense varietal definition with new American oak to produce wines of great richness, harmony and concentration.

Over the years the development of Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon has mirrored the advances in winemaking and viticulture and in this sense has served as a representation of progress and excellence within the industry.Bin 707 proudly bears the Penfolds stamp – displaying a fascinatingly complex marriage of ripe, concentrated cabernet fruit and 100% new American oak, forged together through partial barrel fermentation. It displays dark berried fruit, mocha and chocolate overtones, with warm spice notes.

Bin 707 is a medium to long term cellaring style of wine. It will comfortably gain stature and complexity across more than two decades in the bottle.

Deep crimson. Classical ripe blackcurrant, dark chocolate aromas with malty, caramelised oak notes. Dense and vigorous with smooth generous cassis, praline malty vanilla flavours, rich sweet fruit complexity and plentiful gravelly tannins. Finishes chocolatey firm with superb mineral length and tannin plume. A wine of great presence modulated power and seductive balance. Elemental yet surprisingly supple and easy to drink now. A very convincing Bin 707. Best to hold and drink later.
