First released in 1993 from the 1990 vintage, Bin 407 was developed in response to the increasing availability of high-quality Cabernet Sauvignon fruit. Inspired by the renowned Bin 707, it offers a more approachable expression of the variety while retaining the depth, structure and longevity associated with the Penfolds house style. The 2024 release draws Cabernet Sauvignon from Coonawarra, Padthaway, McLaren Vale, Wrattonbully and the Barossa Valley. This multi-regional approach allows Penfolds to combine aromatic definition, ripe fruit, savoury complexity and firm tannin structure within a single wine. The vintage began with below-average winter rainfall, followed by an unsettled spring that affected fruit set in several South Australian regions. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRainfall during December helped stabilise vine canopies before warm and dry conditions prevailed from January onwards. Heat events during March encouraged smaller berries and concentrated flavours, while cooler April conditions allowed the winemaking team to make measured harvest decisions. The wine was matured for 12 months in French and American oak hogsheads, including 16% new French oak and 5% new American oak. Aromatically expressive, it combines wild raspberry and blackcurrant with forest floor, bay leaf, olive tapenade, cedar, baking spices and subtle herbal notes. The palate is creamy, broad and generously fruited, with mulberry and cherry plum supported by fresh acidity and pithy, chalk-like tannins. Savoury notes of toasted cumin and barbecue jalapeño provide additional depth and persistence. Approachable on release yet firmly structured for ageing, Penfolds recommends a peak drinking window from 2028 to 2048. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Expressive and deeply layered\u003cbr\u003eWild raspberry and blackcurrant with caponata, forest floor, bay leaf, olive tapenade, cedar, vanilla, star anise, nutmeg and fresh green herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Generous and confidently structured\u003cbr\u003eMulberry and cherry plum flow across a broad, creamy mid-palate, supported by fresh acidity, savoury cumin, jalapeño spice and pithy tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long and composed\u003cbr\u003ePersistent dark fruit, savoury spice and cedar carried by chalky tannins and refreshing acidity. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Quintessential Australian Cabernet in all its glory and typicity..It’s a Cabernet of distinctive power, concentration, continuity, layers, depth and future.”\u003c\/em\u003e — Lisa Cardelli, Winepilot, 96 Points \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“At its heart, 407 is all about a varietal interpretation and hence the fruit comes first and it’s striking and irresistibly aromatic in scents of blue fruits, black cherries, plum, earth, dry leaves and a peppery spice, anise intensity. Structurally, it’s solid as a rock, the kind of frame to build a long future on.”\u003c\/em\u003e — Jeni Port, Winepilot, 96 Points \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Bin 407 was created to express Cabernet Sauvignon in a more immediately approachable style than Bin 707 while remaining unmistakably Penfolds. Classic cassis, blackberry and mulberry aromas sit alongside bay leaf, cedar, graphite and dried herbs. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with vibrant blackcurrant fruit, redcurrant, dark chocolate and cedar spice supported by finely woven tannins. There’s excellent freshness and balance throughout, finishing with confidence and persistence.”\u003c\/em\u003e — Tom Kline, Winepilot, 94 Points \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eStyle – Red Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal – Cabernet Sauvignon\u003cbr\u003eCountry – Australia\u003cbr\u003eRegion – South Australia, Coonawarra, Padthaway, McLaren Vale, Wrattonbully and Barossa Valley\u003cbr\u003eVintage – 2024\u003cbr\u003eBottle Size – 750ml\u003cbr\u003eABV – 14.5%\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penfolds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44088215928919,"sku":"PEN-407-CS-24","price":159.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/66b7b6d7-bc15-4f83-a04d-af057e76e84d.webp?v=1785457343","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.co.nz\/products\/penfolds-bin-407-cabernet-sauvignon-2024","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
