Lindeman’s Bin 40 Merlot 750ml

Lindeman’s has been making wine in Australia since 1843, when Dr Henry Lindeman planted his first vines in the Hunter Valley. The Bin series is the range most Australians grew up with — straightforward, consistent wines sold by bin number rather than by region.

Bin 40 is the Merlot, and it plays to the grape’s strengths: ripe plum and red berry, a touch of soft spice, and tannins gentle enough that the wine drinks easily on its own. There is nothing demanding about it, which is rather the point.

Did You Know?
📖 Lindeman’s bin numbers began as literal warehouse labels — the bin each parcel was stored in. The numbers stuck and became brands in their own right.

🌟 Final Note: Soft, familiar and reliably easy. A safe red that never disappoints.
