Product Notes

Penfolds Yattarna Bin 144 Chardonnay is an exquisite Australian wine that offers an elegant and complex taste. It is made from the finest quality grapes grown in the cooler climate of Tasmania and the Adelaide Hills. The wine is matured in oak barrels for nine months, which gives it a rich, creamy texture and adds hints of toasted vanilla and spice to the flavour. The palate is balanced with a bright acidity that amplifies the fruit's intensity, including citrus, pear, and peach. This wine provides a lasting experience due to its impeccable balance, finish, and ageing potential. The Penfolds Yattarna Bin 144 Chardonnay is a must-try for those who love white wines with great complexity and elegance.

Tasting Notes

COLOUR - Very pale, vibrant, glistening straw with green hues. NOSE - An immediate assertion of its cool-climate birthright - mineral, wet-stone flint and bath salts. Radiant fruits concord – notably grapefruit, Meyer lemon and Beurre Bosc pear aromas hold court. These fruits conspire with lees and oak to induce flashes of torched meringue, crème brûlée, roasted hazelnut and tahini. Majestic, yet not too ostentatious. PALATE - Confidently powerful and complex, yet still beguiling graced with florals

About the Winery

Penfolds

Penfolds is a renowned wine producer in Australia. It got established in 1844 in the capital city of Adelaide by Christopher Rawson Penfold. The winery’s story starts when Christopher and his wife, Mary Penfold, shifted from Angmering in West Sussex in the United Kingdom and moved to Australia. After they arrived, their family members helped them attain and acquire 500 acres of land and its estate at the base of the Mount Lofty Ranges. 

In the early years, the Penfold couple produced and sold fortified wines. They were in the style of port and sherry. Gradually, the demand for the drinks increased. It led to the expansion of the small winery that the Penfolds managed and the official establishment of Penfolds. It happened at the Magill Estate. 

Christopher’s medical reputation grew steadily with the rise in fame of Penfolds. It compelled Mary to manage and run a significant portion of the winery. After her husband passed away in 1870, Mary took over the business and its complete responsibility. She worked with exceptional determination, ambition, and endeavour during her reign. In addition, she did not hesitate to engage in various experiments and explore new techniques and methods to produce high-quality wines. 

Mary retired in 1884. At that time, the winery produced about a third of all the wines in South Australia. Mary handed over Penfolds to Georgina, her daughter. She managed it with her husband, Thomas Hyland. Later on, they passed the winery down to their two daughters and two sons. By 1907, Penfolds became the biggest winery compared to all the other wine producers in Adelaide. 

The Penfold family persisted in their family legacy even after Mary’s passed away in 1896 and retained their control and interest till 1976. Today, Penfolds operates and handles two wineries, Nuriootpa and Magill Estate.
