Reserve Bin A Chardonnay 2004

Penfolds Reserve Bin A Chardonnay is a fantastic example of a supreme Australian Chardonnay which has evolved into a distinctive, single region style in its own right. All fruit is hand-picked into small bins and then whole-bunch pressed. The juice is run off into barriques directly from the press, and allowed to undergo a wild fermentation. Enhanced mouthfeel and complexities are achieved by fermenting on full solids, using a relatively high percentage of new oak. The wine undergoes 100% wild, malolactic fermentation. The 2004 vintage boasts flavours of lemon, hazelnut and figs.
