Declared by the prestigious Winestate
Magazine as "Wine of the Year". This wine consistently
wins medals and awards, in 1995 it was voted by The Wine Spectator as one of the top
50 wines in the world. Often it is overshadowed by its more famous partner Grange but Bin
707 is fast gaining respect with consumers and traders alike.
It continues to prove that it is at the pinnacle of Australian Cabernet Sauvignon,
selecting the best grapes from Coonawarra, Barossa and Mount Barker and fermenting in oak
barrels and matured in new American oak. Bin 707 is a powerful wine full bodied and with
great intensity with a cellaring potential of 15 years.
Winemaker John Duval's Comments:
Colour: A
tremendous depth of dark crimson
Nose: The
complex and stylish bouquet shows intense, sweet, dark fruits - stewed plum
and
cassis, with integrated barrel ferment oak characters. Earthy rich nuances and
tobacco
complexities add further depth to the aromas.
Palate: Highly defined and
powerful, the full bodied palate has concentrated blackcurrant
flavours
complexed by integrated, sweet, strong oak and tannins that grip.
The
wine shows impeccable balance, sweetness of fruit and a long lingering finish,
the
hallmarks of a great wine.
