View Full Description [+ Read More]
Penfolds is an Australian winery founded in 1844 in South Australia, producing red wines, fortified wines, and multi-regional blends from vineyards spanning the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, and beyond. Grange, the winery's flagship, is a multi-vineyard Shiraz-dominant blend aged in new American oak hogsheads, represented here across the 2008, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2018 vintages. Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz undergoes maturation in barrels previously used for Grange, earning it the informal designation "Baby Grange." Bin 149 Wine of the World draws on both Australian and international fruit sources. Grandfather Rare Tawny is a solera-matured fortified wine aged on average over twenty years. Bin 389 represents the more accessible tier while Grange stands as the winery's most critically regarded and long-aged expression.
