1988 Penfolds Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon – An Australian Icon
The 1988 Penfolds Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon represents the bold character and legacy of Australia’s most revered producer. Often referred to as the “Grange of Cabernet,” Bin 707 captures the power and structure of South Australian fruit while retaining elegance and depth. This mature vintage stands as a testament to Penfolds’ mastery in crafting world-class Cabernet Sauvignon that rivals the greats of Bordeaux.
Tasting Notes
Now at full maturity, the 1988 Bin 707 shows aromas of blackcurrant liqueur, dried tobacco, and cedarwood, layered with hints of mint, eucalyptus, and dark chocolate. The palate is supple and harmonious, revealing softened tannins, savory spice, and a lingering finish that echoes dried herbs and cassis. A beautifully aged expression of Australian Cabernet.
Winemaking & Vineyard Details
Composed entirely of Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from Coonawarra and Barossa Valley vineyards, the 1988 Bin 707 was matured in new American oak for 18 months before bottling. The warm vintage produced fruit of concentration and depth, balanced by the hallmark Penfolds precision in tannin management and structure.
Investment & Collectibility
The 1988 Penfolds Bin 707 holds an important place in the history of Australian fine wine. Rarely seen in pristine condition, well-cellared bottles are highly prized by collectors and enthusiasts alike. This vintage continues to demonstrate remarkable longevity and balance, underscoring its position among the greatest Australian wines. Perfect for your collection.
Vintage Insights & Accolades
The 1988 vintage in South Australia was warm and dry, producing wines of intensity and concentration. Bin 707 excelled, delivering a wine with rich flavor and structural integrity that has aged gracefully over three decades.
