"This is a terrific wine. Theoretically, it is an American version of Bin 407, keeping all its Penfolds DNA intact and layering it over Napa Valley Cabernet fruit. It works for me incredibly well. This is a hypnotising wine with all of the wildness and ripeness of the Napa, overlaid with Penfolds extraction, tannin, oak and timbre."
"Medium deep crimson. Pure cassis, mulberry, cola aromas with vanilla, cinnamon notes. Round and supple with inky blackcurrant, musky dark plum chinotto flavours fine This document is for internal use only. bittersweet lacy tannins, underlying cedar oak notes and fresh long saline/ mineral acidity. Finishes firm and tight. Beautifully focused wine with understated power, complexity and torque."
"Super concentrated blueberry and cassis aromas, a different fruit profile here; dense and full bodied, elegantly structured and very firm with fine grained, powdery tannins and tremendous persistence. A cracking cabernet. Drink 2026 – 2043. 14.5% alc – 96 points."
Boysenberry red.
Varietally on point. Cassis notes abound, with satsuma plum paste adding to a rather charming aromatic profile. From the pasticceria, a generous selection of sweet delights: sfogliatella pastry, cinnamon scrolls and bomboloni. Notes of raw nutmeg, mace and allspice hover over dried tobacco and sage. Pencil shavings allude to varietal nuance and maturation in quality French oak.
There is a generous sweet core of fruit that offers plenty of flesh right across the palate. Cassis persists on the palate, with baked blackberry pie pastry flavours. Mulberries add a dark, slightly leafy nuance, balanced by the impression of fresh pouring cream. Baking spices abound. The acidity is tight and persistent, a lovely foil to the generous fruits and fine-grained tannins. There is the slightest suggestion of olive brine and kalamata tapenade rounding out a lovely medium bodied wine.
The 2020 season in Napa Valley began with a warm, dry winter. The vintage proved to be one of the most challenging in history, with COVID restrictions and wildfires causing a range of logistical challenges. Nevertheless, our winemakers have leveraged small yields of high-quality, concentrated grapes to craft cabernet sauvignon of exceptional quality and intensity, balanced by excellent acidity.

Our California journey started decades ago in the Camatta Hills vineyard, Paso Robles. In the 1980’s, we initiated an ambitious viticultural program in Australia called ‘Heritage Selections’. From our most prized vineyards, winemakers sought to identify single vineyards, blocks and vines that produced the best quality fruit. Cuttings from these exceptional Heritage Selections were then propagated and eventually sent across the world to California.
