Quintessential Australian Cabernet, the winemaking philosophy behind Bin 707 is based on ripe full-flavoured grapes, completion of fermentation in barrel and new American oak maturation. The result is a wine of great richness, power, harmony and concentration with the structure and strength to age for the long term. A very special Cabernet whatever it's stage of development, Bin 707 develops into a wonderfully complex, engaging wine. The 1997 vintage enjoyed a cool summer that was followed by warm weather in late March and April. Winter rainfall had been excellent in most districts and good rains continued into September and past bud-burst. Maturation in new American oak. Alcohol 13.5%
