Penfolds Barossa Valley Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon 1987

Colour heading to a deep rose-ruby, but on the aromatics this 1987 is less pristine than the others so far, showing undergrowth and mushroom, tobacco leaf, cold ash, soot, bilberry fruit, plenty of leafy Cabernet signature, with spice, similar to the 1966 in character, suggest drinking soon. Predominant Kalimna sourcing (Barossa). 100% new American oak, in hogshead barrels. Second year with John Duval as chief winemaker.
