Penfolds Bin 311 Chardonnay

Bin 311 Chardonnay truly reflects the winemakers’ mantra ‘we always go where the fruit grows best and where it best suits style’. In 2018, fruit sourcing moved to multi-regional cool-climate regions; Adelaide Hills, Tumbarumba, Tasmania. In true Bin 311 style, it exhibits lemon/lime aromas and a mineral acid backbone, complemented by barrel fermentation and maturation in seasoned oak. Minimal filtration is employed, preserving elegant fruit flavours.

Elegant, subtle and charming on the nose. Aromas of lemon blossom and white spring flowers are followed by lemon pith and other citrus enticement. Scents of cashew, pistachio-embedded nougat and beeswax remind of the wine’s sojourn in oak.
