Tasting Notes

Penfolds Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon 2005 is a masterclass in Australian viticulture, embodying both the boldness and elegance that have elevated Penfolds to a global icon. This vintage stands as the #3 Most Collected Cabernet in Australia, reflecting its status among discerning collectors and enthusiasts alike. Harvested from meticulously selected vineyards in South Australia, where the exceptional 2005 growing season balanced warm days with cool nights, this wine achieves a compelling harmony of power and finesse.

On the nose, the 2005 Bin 707 bursts with intense aromas of blackcurrant, cassis, and ripe dark cherry, seamlessly layered with subtle graphite, cedar, and finely integrated oak nuances. The palate delivers concentrated tannins that provide a solid backbone, while the wine’s rich texture and depth unfold with each sip. A lingering, refined finish exemplifies the superb structure and complexity characteristic of premium Cabernet Sauvignon.

This release from Penfolds is distinguished not only by its provenance and craftsmanship but also by critical acclaim, having garnered an outstanding 97 points from Campbell Mattinson. Such a score highlights the wine’s exceptional quality and underscores its reputation as a benchmark for Australian Cabernet. Carefully stored in a premium private cellar, this bottle offers remarkable aging potential, promising further development of its sophisticated flavor profile over time.

The 2005 vintage benefits from South Australia’s unique terroir, where the interplay of climate and soil creates ideal conditions for producing wines with intense fruit expression and structural elegance. Penfolds Bin 707 captures this essence perfectly, making it a treasured expression of both heritage and innovation in Australian winemaking.

Critic Scores

This release of Penfolds Bin 707 cabernet sauvignon was matured in 100 percent new American oak hogsheads, but the fruit is more than a match for it. It’s a stunning wine – and further evidence that Bin 707 has come of age. This is a far cry from the disappointing cabernets released under this label in the 1960s and 1970s.


Tremendous wine. I love the long, lingering, tannic power of this – it’s a super-thruster of a wine. Long and serious, blue-black in colour, rich in saturated blackcurrant-like flavour and boosted by flavours of licorice, mocha and chocolate.

About this Wine

Penfolds

Penfolds was established in 1844 by a young English doctor, Dr Christopher Rawson Penfold. He built a cottage in Magill, on the outskirts of Adelaide with his wife Mary, and it was around this site that vine cuttings from the South of France were planted. Peter Gago joined Penfolds in 1989, and in 2002, he became Chief Winemaker. He leads an incredibly talented and experienced winemaking team who follow the traditions established by Penfolds previous owners.

Penfolds house style wines embrace the idea of multi-regional blending, optimum fruit quality, the use of fine-grained American and French oak and most often, barrel fermentation and maturation. Penfolds has played a big part in the evolution of winemaking in Australia - and across the world. Their biggest viticultural regions include Adelaide, the Barossa Valley, the Clare Valley, Coonawarra, Limestone Coast, and McLaren Vale. In total, grapes are sourced from more than 220 vineyards across Australia and only the best are chosen.

South Australia

If you like Australian wine, then you probably like South Australia wine. The rich reds produced there put Australia on the wine-making map of the world. With over 40% of the countries vineyards, South Australia can rightfully call itself the wine state.

Wines are produced in several regions throughout the state, though many are naturally grouped together, like Barossa and Eden Valleys, only 15 minutes apart. They include such regions as Barossa Valley, Clare Valley, Eden Valley, Coonawarra, Adelaide Hills, Kangaroo Island, Langhorne Creek, The Limestone Coast, McLaren Vale and Wrattonbully to name but a few!

Barossa Valley boasts some of the oldest vines in Australia dating back to 1843 and produces some of the world's finest Shiraz, whilst the 'terra rossa' soils of Coonawarra is most suited to producing outstanding Cabernet Sauvignons. If you're a fan of Riesling, Clare Valley is a great place to explore and for a Maritime climate not dissimilar to parts of the Italian coastline, seek out the wines from McLaren Vale.
