Penfolds Bin 407 Cabernet Sauvignon 2004

I don't tend to buy much wine from Penfolds, but did this weekend as had read some good reviews about the Bin 407. Opened to quite a sweetish bouquet of red berry fruits, blackcurrant, pastilles, cabernet leaf, oak and some earthy notes. On the palate it showed rich but not heady fruits over some very fine dusty tannins, with soft acidity, good length and an almost powdery dry finish. I do prefer more savory examples but this was quite an elegant wine, even perhaps leaning a little towards the sweet side. Very well crafted Cab Sav.
50+4+13+18+7 = 92/100
