PENFOLDS Reserve Bin 21A Chardonnay, Adelaide Hills

Penfolds Reserve Bin A is a cool-climate Chardonnay made from fruit sourced in the Adelaide Hills. The first vintage was in 1994 with the Reserve Bin A part of that new wave of Penfolds Bins that arrived in the mid 90s including the multi-region Chardonnay Yattarna and the single region Shiraz RWT. The Reserve Bin A takes its number from the vintage, slightly out of step with the Penfolds naming system. And thats a good thing as the Reserve Bin A is its own wine. It has plenty of Penfolds seriousness but its a Chardonnay, single-region and cool-climate. These days, vintage variation allowing, its a complex wine with (Michelin patisserie chef level) lemon meringue characters. Very expressive, pure and driven, the Reserve Bin A Chardonnay tends to spend more time on the palate than it does in the glass.
