Critic tasting note: “(2004) The younger brother of Penfolds legendary Bin 707, in fact this wine benefited from the generally poor Cabernet vintage of 2000, when no 707 was made, and the grapes were instead used in this wine. It spent 16 months in French and American oak, about quarter of it new barrels. It has a lovely nose: a laid-back, complex cedar wood and blackcurrant, with a streak of bloody, gamy quality and hints of camphor and exotic spices. The palate is very fine, with a solid, chunky core of blackcurrant and damson plum fruit, a hint of vegetal, herbal flavour, and that support of cedary, smoky oak. The tannins are very ripe and fine, but quite grippy and the wine has real length, with lovely balancing acidity. Very powerful, yet elegant, this is a fine effort.” – 89/100, Tom Cannavan
