Penfolds – Bin 407 – Cabernet Sauvignon (1998, 1999)

Welcome to oak city, and what a lovely place it is. Rich deep tannins render these vintages very deep, dark red in colour. The ’98 is perhaps begining to get a little old (or perhaps not cellared correctly) but both are quite drinkable now. Like the St Henri’s an unrushed and patient period of time allowing it to open up is essential for this wine.
