Penfolds Reserve Bin A Chardonnay 2025
Reserve Bin A Chardonnay has evolved into a wine that is now a distinctive, single-region style, with a contemporary and expressive Adelaide Hills Chardonnay persona. Fruit is hand-picked into small bins and then whole-bunch pressed. A portion of the juice is allowed to undergo a natural fermentation, without inoculation. Every new and seasoned French oak barrique is its own unique 225-litre ferment. Enhanced mouthfeel and complexity are achieved by fermenting and maturing on solids with regular yeast lees stirring (bâttonage). 100% malolactic fermentation (all natural).

Ground cashew nut and white peach sit at the core, layered with savoury notes of crisp
fried field shallot. A subtle nutty creaminess emerges with air, revealing further cashew depth alongside gun flint characters.
Palate:
Textured waves of vanilla pannacotta and white stone fruit. This expression is not driven by citrus, instead favouring weight, structure and mouthfeel.
