✨ Technical Specifications
Penfolds Bin 90A is a legendary and exceedingly rare 'Special Bin' wine, crafted as a monumental, one-off release from the exceptional 1990 vintage. Following in the footsteps of the mythical 1962 Bin 60A, Bin 90A represents the absolute pinnacle of Penfolds' multi-regional blending philosophy. It seamlessly marries structured, elegant Cabernet Sauvignon from the terra rossa soils of Coonawarra with rich, opulent Shiraz sourced from the historic Kalimna Vineyard in the Barossa Valley. Matured in premium American oak hogsheads, this wine is celebrated by collectors worldwide for its extraordinary depth, complexity, and seamless integration, standing as a monumental chapter in Australian winemaking history.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1844 by Dr. Christopher Rawson Penfold and his wife Mary at the Magill Estate in South Australia, Penfolds is one of Australia's oldest and most iconic wine producers. The estate achieved legendary international acclaim during the 1950s under visionary chief winemaker Max Schubert, who created Penfolds Grange and revolutionized the country's winemaking techniques. Driven by a celebrated philosophy of multi-regional and multi-varietal blending, Penfolds sources exceptional fruit across historic Australian terroirs—such as the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, and Coonawarra—as well as select premier global regions. The house is universally revered for powerful, impeccably structured, and long-lived wines, led by its flagship Grange, Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon, and celebrated Bin series.
