Description

Bin 311 Chardonnay truly reflects the winemakers’ mantra of going where the fruit grows best and where it best suits style. In the previous release of Bin 311, fruit sourcing moved to multi-regional cool-climate regions. In true Bin 311 style, not unlike Yattarna, it exhibits lemon/lime aromas and a mineral acid backbone, complemented by barrel fermentation and maturation in mostly seasoned oak. Minimal filtration is employed, preserving elegant fruit flavours.

A persistent citrus line framed by white stone fruit – sliced fresh peach and dare mention – peach bellini.

Again, a lovely linearity evident.

All balanced by mouthwatering acidity with a subtle, nutty mealiness. Whist this acidity is quite pronounced (almost pithy),

the French oak underpinning is not…

A cool-climate mix of three great Chardonnay regional sources – fulfilling all palate flavour and structural expectations.

A wonderful union, an enlightened blend.
