[SOLD-OUT] Penfolds Bin 707 1998 (Minor Damaged Label)

Jeremy Oliver 97 points!


In the footsteps of the brilliant 1996 wine comes another densely packed, multi-layered 707 of rare strength and depth. So young it simply couldn't be opened now, its deep flavours of blackcurrants, dark cherries and plums are ripened to the point of headiness, and ably counter its cedary, nutty, chocolate oak and monumental extract of puckering, ripe tannins...Drink 2010-2018+ Jeremy Oliver's Australian Wine Annual, 01/02/2001

“This monumental 1998 version of Bin 707 was tasted as part of the Penfolds Rewards of Patience tastings in 2007. This is a ‘wow’ wine. Mint and blackcurrant, strong and straight. Oak here has been majorly consumed – though what wouldn’t succumb to such a boom of gorgeous, dark fruit flavour? Big tannin, big minty fruit, quite phenomenal. Length and purity. A star. Drink to 2030. ”
