Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon Gift Box Lunar New Year Horse Edition (750 ml)

When Max Schubert built Grange around Shiraz, Penfolds quietly reserved its most uncompromising Cabernet ambition for Bin 707 — a wine that receives 100% new oak maturation, a regime so demanding that most Australian Cabernet producers reserve it only for their flagship. The 2023 draws fruit from Penfolds' multi-regional South Australian network, anchored by Barossa Valley parcels — including the ancient, phylloxera-free deep alluvial and sandy loam soils of Kalimna, where Cabernet Sauvignon vines have grown continuously since the 1880s. Those ancient, low-vigour soils suppress canopy and concentrate berry mass, producing the dense mid-palate architecture that defines the Bin 707 signature.

Vinification follows Penfolds' house discipline: acclimatised pure yeast cultures, temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel, and maturation in 100% new American and/or French oak — a split that delivers both vanilla-cedar structure and finer-grained tannin integration. The result is a wine built for the cellar, not the counter. What separates Bin 707 from every peer in its price tier is the deliberate refusal of blending relief: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, zero varietal softening, in a house whose entire philosophy is built on blending. That transgression is the point. The 2023 vintage is newly released; drinking window conservatively estimated 2028–2045+.
