The outstanding 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon Bin 707 is a thick, rich, fullbodied Cabernet emphasizing copious quantities of cassis fruit. Pure, with
nicely integrated oak, acidity, and tannin, it cuts a broad swath across the palate. While still young and grapy, this 1998 is loaded with potential.
Firm in texture, with an open feel--a transparency--to the red berry, cherry and herb flavors. Has an aristocratic structure, with ripe tannins and a floral quality to the finish.
