Bin 707 1994 Penfolds

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (90)

Penfolds' most impressive Cabernet Sauvignon is the 1994 Bin 707. This murky plum-colored, blockbuster, backward, exceptionally tannic Cabernet displays abundant quantities of blackberry and cassis fruit, a heavy overlay of toasty vanillin from new oak casks, and mouthsearing levels of tannin. Although the wine is closed, it is firmly-structured and enormously-endowed in the mouth.

Winespectator (88)

Bright and fruity, with a firm backbone to support the well-articulated currant and blackberry flavors. Finishes with a nice echo of fruit, but doesn't show the depth and extra dimensions we've come to expect of this wine.
