Penfolds, Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon other_regions intense and beautifully stony mediumRuby red. Vinous, captivating aromas of blackberry, wild plum, currant, roast coffee and mocha, with subtle rather than overwhelming evidence of American oak. Concentrated, harmonious and quite suave; at once velvety and nicely delineated thanks to ripe, well integrated acidity. Finishes with substantial ripe tannins and excellent length. Stephen Tanzer
