โจ Technical Specifications
Lindemans' legendary 'Bin' releases from the Hunter Valley, particularly the historic Hunter River Burgundy series, are cornerstones of Australian wine history. The Bin 4110 represents a classic, traditional style of medium-bodied red that defined the region in the mid-to-late 20th century. Sourced from low-yielding, dry-grown Shiraz vines planted in the volcanic clay soils of the Hunter Valley, this wine was crafted using traditional open-vat fermentation and matured in large, older oak casks to preserve its bright fruit character and regional identity. Over time, these wines develop a celebrated complexity, transforming from vibrant red-fruit profiles into savory masterpieces defined by notes of leather, forest floor, game, and soft spices. It is a testament to the pioneering spirit of Dr. Henry Lindeman and the incredible aging potential of Hunter Valley Shiraz.
๐พ About the Producer
Established in 1843 by British naval surgeon Dr. Henry John Lindeman at Cawarra on the Paterson River in the Hunter Valley, Lindemans stands among Australia's oldest and most influential wine houses. Now operating under the stewardship of Treasury Wine Estates, the estate transitioned from its historic Hunter Valley roots to encompass prized viticultural holdings across Coonawarra's famed terra rossa soils, Padthaway, and the broader South Eastern Australia multi-regional sourcing corridor. Viticulturally committed to certified sustainable winegrowing and enterprise-wide carbon neutrality targets, Lindemans champions approachable fruit purity complemented by subtle oak structuring. The label achieved global renown through its ubiquitous Bin Series, pioneered by the internationally acclaimed Bin 65 Chardonnay alongside Bin 85 Pinot Grigio and Bin 50 Shiraz. At its apex, the producer crafts historic, cellar-worthy benchmarks such as the Coonawarra Trioโcomprising the St George Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Limestone Ridge Shiraz Cabernet, and Pyrusโcelebrating structured cool-climate Australian regionality.
