Penfolds Bin 407 Cabernet Sauvignon

Colour
Garnet red

Nose
An aromatic umbrella sheltering all things cabernet.
An immediate ascent of violet, mulberry leaf – laced with star anise, cinnamon, orange zest.
Followed by varietal wafts of tomato ketchup, soy, iodine, and oddly, a Chinese spice/stock marinade.
Not yet exiting this theme – sweet plum sauce, hoisin and roast duck crackling trepidatiously follows
