Cabernet Sauvignon

Penfolds Bin 707

Langton's Classification: Exceptional

Bin 707 is a Cabernet Sauvignon reflection of Grange, intensely-flavoured fruit, completion of fermentation and maturation in new oak, expressing a Penfolds understanding of multi-vineyard, multi-region fruit sourcing. Bin 707 was first vintaged in 1964. The wine was not made from 1970 to 1975 when fruit was directed to other wines, nor in 1981, 1995, 2000, 2003 or 2011 (when fruit of the required style and quality was not available). Full bodied and with proven cellaring potential, Bin 707 retains a secure place among the ranks of Australias finest Cabernets.

Penfolds Bin 407 Cabernet Sauvignon (Gift Boxed)

Penfolds has a rich history dating back to 1844 when Dr. Christopher and Mary Penfold arrived in Australia with a vine cutting and a bold vision. They purchased 500 acres of land in South Australia and began producing tonics, brandies, and fortified wines made from grapes and Australian sunshine. Christopher's planting of vines and his philosophies continue to influence Penfolds to this day. Mary Penfold, the unsung chief of Penfolds, played a significant role in the winery's experimentations, growth and winemaking philosophies. Max Schubert became the company's first Chief Winemaker in 1948 and created the long-lasting Penfolds Grange in the 1950s. The tradition of 'bin wines' began in 1959 with Kalimna Bin 28 becoming the first official Penfolds Bin number wine. Penfolds continues to innovate, with the release of the rare 2004 Kalimna Block Cabernet Sauvignon in 2012 and the 170th anniversary celebration in 2014. Today, Penfolds remains one of Australia's most famed and respected winemakers, driven by generations of visionaries and innovators who strive for excellence in winemaking. First released in 1993 with the 1990 vintage, Bin 407 was produced in response to the increasing availability of high quality cabernet sauvignon fruit. Inspired by Bin 707, Bin 407 offers varietal definition and approachability, yet still with structure and depth of flavour. This is a textbook definition of cabernet sauvignon - varietally expressive Bin 407 highlights the rewards of Penfolds multi-vineyard, multi-region blending, with a core of ripe fruit supported by sensitive use of American and French oak. The Penfolds Bin 407 Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 (Gift Boxed) showcase a wine that has been carefully crafted using a unique blend of maturation techniques and vintage conditions that have resulted in an exceptional South Australian cabernet sauvignon. Maturation for this wine involved 12 months in French (25% new) and American (12% new) oak hogsheads, while the remainder was matured in 1-y.o. French and American oak hogsheads. This maturation process infused the wine with subtle but complex oak flavours that perfectly complement the fruit aromas and flavours. The vintage conditions were ideal for growing the grapes in Coonawarra, Wrattonbully, Padthaway, McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley and Adelaide Hills regions. Padthaway yields were 25% above the norm and the mild summer and autumn conditions in all regions allowed the grapes to ripen evenly and slowly. The wine's crimson red color entices the senses, while the nose opens up with varieties of blackberry, mulberries and violets. Aromas of bay leaf, wet tobacco and baking spices provide further intrigue. On the palate, the wine is concentrated with cool dark fruits and the notes of grilled capsicum and cumin spiced eggplant create a unique savory flavor profile infused by cherry wood smoke and sandalwood. The tannins are firm and persistent, with a hint of bitter dark chocolate. While the wine is lively and energetic, it is built to last and is approachable yet clearly designed for a long spell in the dungeon. This wine is a perfect match for savory dishes and will continue to evolve and develop its complexity until at least 2055.

Parker Terra Rossa First Growth Cabernet Sauvignon

Founded in 1985 by John and Faye Parker, Parker Estate stands as a testament to their unwavering commitment to producing exceptional wines. The Abbey Vineyard, which lays the foundation for their esteemed wines, was planted with Reynell Selection Cabernet vines. These vines, sourced from Bordeaux in the 1800s, hold a historical significance, as they were lost to France forever due to the devastating phylloxera outbreak. Over the course of four decades, Parker Estate has garnered numerous wine show medals, trophies and accolades. This recognition includes the prestigious Five Red Star rating by James Halliday, solidifying their position as one of the most esteemed wineries in Coonawarra. Coonawarra owes its reputation as a premier wine-growing region to John Riddoch, considered the region's founder. In 1891, Riddoch, upon the recommendation of his friend and renowned viticulturist Thomas Hardy, planted Shiraz, Cabernet, and Pinot Noir vines. This visionary decision laid the groundwork for the region's viticultural success and showcased its potential. Nestled in one of Australia's first and finest cool-climate wine-growing regions, Coonawarra benefits from the maritime influence of the Southern Ocean. The seasonal upwelling of dark blue water streams from Antarctica further enhances the cooling effect, creating an ideal environment for grape cultivation. With 1492 Growing Degree Days (GDD), Coonawarra's climate is slightly cooler than Bordeaux and significantly cooler than the Napa Valley and Margaret River regions. However, it is the unique 27km long and 2km wide cigar-shaped outcrop of ancient Terra Rossa soils that truly sets Coonawarra apart. Resting above a hard limestone cap, these Terra Rossa soils provide excellent drainage, allowing the vines to thrive. Beneath the soils lies an aquifer, a remnant of an ancient seabed, further contributing to the region's distinctive terroir. Parker Estate has harnessed the full potential of this remarkable location, combining the advantages of the aquifer, cool climate and free-draining Terra Rossa soils to achieve the highest standards of wine-growing. The result is a portfolio of exceptional wines that reflect the unique essence of Coonawarra. First Growth is a wine that is exclusively crafted in select years when the growing season yields exceptional fruit quality. It is only produced when a particular vintage is determined to possess ageing potential of at least 15 years or more. The Parker Terra Rossa First Growth Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 is a remarkable wine that showcases the epitome of Coonawarra winemaking. This vintage displays a deep, garnet hue that hints at the complexity and depth that awaits. On the nose, intricate layers of blackcurrant, blackberry and dark cherry intertwine with notes of cedar, tobacco and a subtle hint of earthiness. These aromas are complemented by nuances of vanilla and baking spice, adding an enticing touch of elegance. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with velvety tannins that provide a luxurious mouthfeel. Flavours of ripe black fruits dominate, accompanied by hints of chocolate and espresso. The wine boasts excellent structure and balance, with a seamless integration of fruit, oak and tannins. As the wine lingers on the palate, it reveals its true potential, with a long, lingering finish that leaves a lasting impression. The 2008 vintage of the Parker Terra Rossa First Growth Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the remarkable ageing potential of Coonawarra wines, promising continued development and refinement over the years. This wine truly embodies the essence of Coonawarra's unique terroir, with its distinct Terra Rossa soils and cool maritime influence. It is a testament to the uncompromising commitment to quality and passion for winemaking that Parker Estate embodies. Enjoy this exceptional wine now, or cellar it for further ageing, as it promises to evolve and reveal even greater complexity and depth with time.

Penfolds Bin 704 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Steeped in Penfolds winemaking tradition yet still embracing modernity, Bin 704 seeks to redefine Napa Valley cabernet through a Penfolds lens. Being mindful of varietal nuances, regional essence and silk-like textural definition, the wine is nurtured in French barriques for maturation. Impressive is the cyclical nature of viticulture and winemaking, and Penfolds recognises that different hemispheres often end up being the mirror image of the other. The name Bin 704 draws inspiration from the “mirror” or “reverse” image of its Australian Bin 407 stablemate, a wine which also respects varietal expression.
