Penfolds Bin 704 Cabernet Sauvignon

$99.96

On the palate, this wine presents fennel/anise and black liquorice flavours that pave the way for fine yet powerful mouthcoating tannins. The weighty structure carries savoury nuances (artisanal charcuterie paired with tangy barberries) adding layers of complexity. Cherry nuances – both cherry pip tartness and white cherry subtle sweetness – play off each other elegantly. The finish is punctuated by notes of preserved salty plum, which linger long after the last sip.
 
A sophisticated potpourri of dried flowers and aromatic herbs such as marjoram and sage, accompanied by black and red fruits that provide a vibrant counterpoint. The rusticity of fennel Cacciatori and traditional black pudding adds depth, while notes of freshly baked olive bread adds warmth and comfort. Bay leaf notes mingle with black pepper, all underpinned by subtle notes of oak char and cedar wood.

Description

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.



PENFOLDS CALIFORNIA WINE

The 2020 season in Napa Valley began with a warm, dry winter. Summer was characterised by very cool mornings and very warm days. The vintage proved to be one of the most challenging in history, with COVID restrictions and wildfires causing a range of logistical challenges. Nevertheless, our winemakers have leveraged small yields of high-quality, concentrated grapes to craft cabernet sauvignon of exceptional quality and intensity balanced by excellent acidity.
