✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Penfolds Reserve Bin A Chardonnay has established a stellar reputation as one of Australia's finest white wines, representing a highly sophisticated, single-region style from the cool-climate Adelaide Hills. A unique aspect of this wine's identity is its naming convention: the bin number changes with each vintage to incorporate the year, meaning the '15A' designation specifically represents the exceptional 2015 vintage. First created in the mid-1990s, the Reserve Bin A program was designed to push the boundaries of Australian Chardonnay, pioneering a style defined by complexity, striking minerality, and structural elegance. The fruit is hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed, and transferred directly into French oak barriques without settling. It undergoes 100% wild yeast fermentation and complete malolactic fermentation on its yeast lees, with regular battonage to build a creamy, textured mouthfeel that beautifully balances the region's naturally high, vibrant acidity.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Penfolds blev grundlagt i 1844 af dr. Christopher Rawson Penfold og hans hustru Mary på Magill Estate i South Australia og er i dag et af Australiens ældste og mest ikoniske vinhuse. Ejendommen opnåede legendarisk international anerkendelse i 1950'erne under den visionære chefvinmager Max Schubert, som skabte Penfolds Grange og revolutionerede landets vinfremstilling. Drevet af en berømt filosofi om at blande på tværs af regioner og druesorter udvælger Penfolds enestående druer fra historiske australske terroirs – herunder Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale og Coonawarra – samt fra udvalgte internationale topområder. Vinhuset er verdenskendt for kraftfulde, upåklageligt strukturerede og særdeles lagringsværdige vine anført af flagskibet Grange, Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon og den berømmede Bin-serie.
