Penfolds Bin 704 Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 is a refined, full-bodied wine sourced from Napa Valley and matured 17 months in 40% new French oak. It offers a sophisticated profile of blood plum, raspberry, red licorice, and cocoa with firm tannins and a long, lingering finish. Brighter and more approachable than the 2018 vintage, it balances lively red fruits with darker, smoky undertones and a backbone of fresh acidity. Bin 704 is Penfolds’ modern take on Napa cabernet, blending tradition with elegance and silky texture, designed as a mirror to their Australian Bin 407.

The fruit for the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Bin 704 is from across Napa Valley, and the classy fruit is shaped by French oak (40% new) and firm tannins through the finish. This is supple and sweet and shows blood plum, raspberry, red licorice and even cocoa. The wine is long and lingering and shapely. Sophisticated.

Brighter and leaner than the inaugural 2018 vintage of Bin 704, this has more immediate approachability yet remains muscular and serious. An opulent berries-and-cream nose befits the lively red fruits that caress the mid-palate, but then black storm clouds roll in, changing the personality of this wine abruptly, as dark fruits and soot drive hard to the finish. A proud spine of acidity ensures that cassis and wild blackberry notes persist.

Aged 17 months in French oak (40% new).
More fruit-centric than their 600, but less overtly Napa than many. Sweet spice from oak on the length, and very supple texture. Gorgeous lengthy liquorice character.

Steeped in Penfolds winemaking tradition yet still embracing modernity, Bin 704 seeks to redefine Napa Valley cabernet through a Penfolds lens. Being mindful of varietal nuances, regional essence and silk-like textural definition, the wine is nurtured in French barriques for maturation. Impressive is the cyclical nature of viticulture and winemaking, and Penfolds recognises that different hemispheres often end up being the mirror image of the other. The name Bin 704 draws inspiration from the “mirror” or “reverse” image of its Australian Bin 407 stablemate, a wine which also respects varietal expression.
