Penfolds Bin 311 Chardonnay 2024 is a cool-climate Chardonnay sourced from Adelaide Hills, Tasmania and Tumbarumba, regions selected for their ability to deliver freshness, natural acidity and precision. The wine is barrel-fermented and matured for around eight months in French oak barriques, with a low proportion of new oak, and aged on lees to build texture without overt richness.
The style is dry and medium-bodied, focused on citrus and stone fruit with a mineral, chalk-like line through the palate. Acidity and subtle phenolic grip define the structure, giving clarity and length rather than weight. Bin 311 2024 is approachable on release but has the balance to develop well over the medium term.
What the critics say:
"The 2024 Bin 311 Chardonnay leads with toasty notes of pan-roasted dry spices, banana, toasted cashews and white peach. The wine is rich and generous, with a seam of fine, salty acidity that courses through its heart. The fruit is sourced from Adelaide Hills, Tasmania and Tumbarumba, and while the conditions in each of these diverse regions differed somewhat, they were aligned in that it was a high-quality growing season. This is powerful and concentrated, with an attractive mealiness through the finish. It matured for eight months in French oak, 18% new. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap."
"The 2024 Chardonnay Bin 311 has wide appeal thanks to its powerful, flinty, expressive aromas of melon and peach skin lifted by overt yet balanced French oak with savory nougat barrel ferment. Its punchy upfront grapefruit flavors are tightly wound, almost explosive and need time to shine. This has standout balance and length, showcasing an exceptional vintage for this label that will age very well. "
