Est. range:
Private Sale- priced per LOT inc. GST (if applicable) and commission.
97/100 Points
On the palate, this wine presents fennel/anise and black liquorice flavours that pave the way for fine yet powerful mouth coating tannins. The weighty structure carries savoury nuances (artisanal charcuterie paired with tangy barberries) adding layers of complexity. Cherry nuances – both cherry pip tartness and white cherry subtle sweetness – play off each other elegantly. The finish is punctuated by notes of preserved salty plum, which linger long after the last sip.
- Region: Napa Valley, California, USA.
- Winemaking: Matured in French oak barrels (60% 1-year-old, 40% new) for 16 months, emphasizing Penfolds' traditional approach with Californian fruit.
- Tasting Notes: Black Forest cake, glazed cherries, dark chocolate, blackcurrant, cassis, wild thyme, cedar, bay leaf, and peppery notes.
- Palate: Full-bodied, structured with fine tannins, balanced acidity, and a long, elegant finish.
- Aging: Excellent aging potential, with recommendations to cellar for significant development.
- Significance: The inaugural vintage for Penfolds' Napa exploration, designed as a mirror to their Australian Bin 407.

Buying At Auction?
Your Questions, Answered
What do you need from me to get started?
We will need you to confirm that you are over 18 (for obvious reasons!) and to open an account by registering on the site. This will include provision of credit card details for any eventual purchases. You will also need to sign that you have read the terms and conditions.
How many wines are in each Lot?
You will see the quantity (number of bottles) stated above the price. Please note that the bid-price is per bottle so you will need to multiply the price by the number of bottles in the lot to calculate the total price of the lot.
Can I cancel my bid if I change my mind?
All bids are final - please think before you confirm your bid.
How much is the Buyers' Commission?
We have an extremely competitive buyers' commission of 16.5% (GST inclusive). This will be added to the final winning price of your Lot at the end of the auction.
What are your freight charges?
Please see our Delivery Policy for full details relating to freight.
Is there a Guarantee on my wine?
Under Australian law, consumer guarantees do not apply to goods purchased at auction - all such purchases are at the risk of the Buyer. We will always provide as much detail as we can as to the visual condition and provenance of each Lot, however this is done so as a guide rather than as a guarantee.
