Grapes sourced from Padthaway, Coonawarra, Wrattonbully, McLaren Vale, and Barossa Valley make up this blend, matured for 12 months in 27% new French and 8% new American oak hogsheads. This vintage of Bin 407 offers nuances of menthol and eucalypt, possibly influenced by the presence of Padthaway fruit taking a stronger role. The palate carries a distinct saline quality, while classic flavors of blackcurrant, cassis, and roast capsicum persist through a finish characterized by impressive line and length, supported by robust, fine-grained mineral tannins.
