Description
The 2015 Penfolds Bin 707 is a rich and powerful Bin 707. Fruit used for this vintage was sourced from premium vineyards located in the Coonawarra, Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Padthaway. This vintage was matured in new American oak for 20 months and weighs in at 14.5% alc/vol.
2015 was a great vintage throughout South Australia with above average rainfall in winter and early spring. Autumn and early winter rainfall were above the long-term average. Rain stopped abruptly in early August with only light showers observed throughout spring. The dry and cool spring period effected canopy growth early in the season. Warm and dry conditions during flowering and fruit-set resulted in rapid grapevine growth and early flowering. A high rainfall event occurred in Coonawarra in January, mostly falling outside of veraison. February brought weekend heat spikes, pushing mean maximum temperatures well above the average resulting in early ripening and harvest.
