Critic reviews
"The 2024 Yattarna Chardonnay is creamy, sleek and so polished. This is a brilliant wine. This and the Reserve Bin A usually duke it out for my favorite wines of the release each year, and in the end, I don't suppose it matters too much which wins. The Yattarna is stylistically typified by streamlined composure, length and compact complexity, while the Reserve Bin A is more flinty and more immediately seductive. I love them both. Anyway, both of these wines in this year's release look fantastic."

"The quality and prestige of this renowned bottling jumps from the glass, balancing deep unctuous aromas of grilled lemon, orchard fruits and citrus blossom intertwined with a reductive salty edge of wet stone, flint and cashew. The palate is packed with flavor and complexity that is almost overwhelming until the salivating acidity cuts right through, leaving a tense and flamboyant finish. Grand cru quality, drinking wonderfully now with plenty of time to unravel in the cellar. Made from fruit grown in Tumbarumba, Adelaide Hills and Tasmania. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

"Stands head and shoulders above so many in the lineup, delivering grip, lift and joy. Slowly stretches out through the palate, gunsmoke, preserved lemons, elderflowers, white pear, delicious, full of impact and personality, skilful winemaking teasing out a ton of character."

"A stunner of a vintage for Penfolds' top Chardonnay! Immediately intriguing with its savoury and mineral nose; think briny salinity, struck flint and slate, but with hints of brioche, macadamia and blossom too. Such depth to the palate, which has a taut mineral core, elegantly layered with oyster shell, green olive and creamy golden citrus; framed by precise acidity and with incredible persistence."

"A big step up here in quality from Bin 311 when tasted in Paris, as ever, and an exceptional vintage of this exceptional and often underappreciated wine. Tasted after Bin 311, this is of course fuller and richer, but don’t be mistaken, this is a wine – above all in 2024 – that is all about scrunchy freshness and fruit purity. It also has a delightful white florality and a lovely hint of lanolin. Floral field honey, lime juice and lime zest, blood orange, white melon, a little hint of jasmine and that redolent Yattarna candlewax. Gooseberry and white grapefruit. Grace and charm, solar but strikingly fresh with it. Very zesty and, at the same time, chalky on the finish. Refined and gently pulsating too as the acidity ripples all the way to a long distant horizon."
