Quite smoky and toasty, but also richly fruited and citrusy, the 2020 Bin 311 Chardonnay is a lovely example of Australian Chardonnay. Aged eight months in 41% new French oak, this blend from Tasmania (68%), Piccadilly (25%) and Henty (7%) is bold and flavorful, medium-bodied, with a ripe, custardy feel and lingering, citrusy-crisp finish. It's the best value of these three Penfolds Chardonnays, loaded with pineapple and citrus notes and bursting with flavor for a price that's competitive with comparable wines out of California.

Deep, complex and elegant, with a powerful core of poached pear, dried apricot and marmalade, details of toasted hazelnut and green cardamom, and a touch of sea salt on the mouthwatering finish. Drink now. 2,633 cases imported.
