This wine, akin to RWT Bin 798 with its focus on a single region and 100% French oak, stands in stark contrast to Bin 707. It embodies a purist's vision of cabernet, diverging from Penfolds' traditional regional blending approach. Tannin takes center stage, with flavors of cassis and olive tapenade enveloping the tannic structure rather than the other way around. Pair it with a roasted side of baby lamb for a delightful experience.
