First released in 1964, Penfolds Bin 707 is the ultimate expression of Cabernet Sauvignon in the Penfolds portfolio, representing the Cabernet counterpart to the legendary Grange. The wine's name was inspired by the Boeing 707, reflecting the era's excitement for transatlantic jet travel. True to Penfolds' house style, Bin 707 is a multi-regional blend, sourcing the finest fruit from premium South Australian regions such as the Barossa Valley, Coonawarra, Padthaway, and McLaren Vale. It is celebrated for its intense varietal character, massive structure, and luxurious maturation in 100% new American oak hogsheads for approximately 18 months, resulting in a rich, complex, and highly collectible masterpiece.

Founded in 1844 by Dr. Christopher and Mary Penfold at Magill Estate near Adelaide, Penfolds is one of Australia's oldest and most iconic wineries, now headquartered in Nuriootpa, South Australia. The estate is celebrated for pioneering a unique house style centered on multi-regional and multi-vineyard blending, a philosophy perfected by legendary winemaker Max Schubert in the mid-20th century. Penfolds is globally renowned for its robust, structured red wines aged in premium oak, most notably its flagship Grange—a rich, collectible Shiraz-based blend—alongside acclaimed expressions like Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz and Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon. Today, while maintaining its deep South Australian roots, the producer has expanded its winemaking footprint to include exceptional terroirs in California, Bordeaux, and beyond.
