Tasting Notes

96
Inside Bordeaux Jane Anson - 29 May 24
A blast of mint leaf straight from the first nose, inky ruby in colour, richly textured, clear layering of cloves, truffles, dried herbs, mocha, orange peel, mandarin, ecualyptus, blackcurrant and black cherry fruit. This is fairly closed and muscular even at 22 years old, not giving a huge amount away yet, a testament to how slowly and impressively the 707 ages. Everything in place, but inching forward. 100% new American oak.
Drinking Date: 2024 - 2038

Vinous Josh Raynolds - 01 Jul 05
Saturated, opaque ruby. Exotic, flamboyant aromas of kirsch, cassis, coconutty oak, chocolate and candied mint; the mint note builds with air but does not turn green. Large-scaled, fat and viscous in the mouth, displaying powerful, densely concentrated flavors of ripe cherry, blackcurrant, mocha, gingerbread and fruitcake, plus a wallop of bourbony, toasty oak. Sweet and long on the finish, with completely absorbed tannins. This became richer and thicker with air and may be the best example of a Bin 707 I've ever tasted.
