Reserve Bin A Chardonnay

Sourced solely from Adelaide Hills fruit and produced only in exceptional years.

From its early releases Reserve Bin A was often assembled from the full-bodied, experimental components deemed unsuitable for the Yattarna style.

However, with Reserve Bin A, Senior White Winemaker Kym Schroeter has enjoyed more freedom to explore chardonnay’s stylistic boundaries, generally producing a more forward style of wine with a different expression to that of Yattarna.

Since its first vintage in 1994, Reserve Bin A has been sourced purely from Adelaide Hills fruit, from up to 80 vineyards and produced only when conditions are perfect. Reserve Bin A is notable for intense, elegant fruit flavours and distinctive complexity. Individual, fine-grained, French oak barrels have been selected for perfect integration, complexity, and fruit expression, producing an unmistakably rich wine.

The Reserve Bin A Chardonnay is the embodiment of a strong tradition of experimentation and development at Penfolds. Each vintage proudly reflects an evolution of winemaking philosophy and individual winemaking skills.
