WINE DESCRIPTION

The unique terroir of the vineyards, combined with the winemaking expertise of Penfolds, results in a wine that is elegant, complex, and balanced. The winemakers use a combination of oak and stainless steel to ferment and age the wine, resulting in a style that is crisp and refreshing, with notes of citrus, stone fruit, and subtle oak. This wine is a perfect choice for those who appreciate a high-quality Chardonnay that is both sophisticated and approachable.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Penfolds Bin 311 Chardonnay has a light golden hue in the glass and a nose of fresh pineapple, green apple and a hint of citrus.On the palate, this wine is full-bodied and creamy, with layers of tropical fruit, citrus zest and a subtle oak note. The finish is long and balanced, with a hint of toasty oak lingering. Enjoy this wine with grilled salmon, roasted chicken or creamy pasta dishes.
