2018 Penfolds 'Bin 704' Cabernet Sauvignon

96 Points: A streamlined liquid with dusty tannins, we discover a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that’s 100% Napa Valley, with 100% Penfolds winemaking signature, aged 16 months in 100% French oak. There’s a slippery aspect to the mouthfeel, where lavender and peony converge with plum skin and jasmine. With skin contact lengthened a few extra days, the beefy, concentrated notes of cherry liqueur and dark chocolate surface. marked by spiced cedar, the finish is a satisfying immersion of power and elegance.
