Lindemans River Burgundy Bin 3110 is a legendary name in the annals of Australian wine history, representing the golden era of New South Wales dry reds. Historically, Australian winemakers used European regional names to describe style rather than grape variety; Burgundy in this context denoted a medium-bodied, savory, and complex red wine, predominantly crafted from Hunter Valley Shiraz and occasionally blended with Pinot Noir. Sourced from historic vineyards along the river flats of New South Wales, Bin 3110 is celebrated for its remarkable longevity, developing complex notes of leather, damp earth, forest floor, and sweet spice over decades of cellaring. It stands as a monument to the traditional, elegant winemaking techniques of mid-20th century Australia, showcasing a lighter, more savory side of Australian Shiraz.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Founded in 1843 by Dr. Henry Lindeman in the Hunter Valley of New South Wales, Lindemans is one of Australia's oldest and most pioneering wine estates. Dr. Lindeman initially planted his first vines at his 'Cawarra' property, establishing a philosophy of crafting approachable, high-quality wines designed to bring joy to everyday life. Over the generations, the winery expanded its footprint into South Australia's premium cool-climate regions, most notably Coonawarra, where it produces iconic, structured reds like the Limestone Ridge Shiraz Cabernet and St George Cabernet Sauvignon. Today, Lindemans is celebrated globally for both its historic, cellar-worthy single-vineyard releases and its highly popular, fruit-forward Bin Series, maintaining a legacy of quality and accessibility.
