The opulence and finesse of a Southern Australia Red wine

The property

Named New World Winery of the Year in 2013 by the prestigious magazine Wine Enthusiast, the Penfolds estate had already established itself as a symbol of great Australian wines at the beginning of the 20th century thanks to the unparalleled determination of Mary Penfold. Indeed, the co-founder of Penfolds Winery devoted herself body and soul to producing exceptional wines. This lifelong work is reflected in the estate's success in establishing itself as a reference in Southern Australia. When in the 1950s, Max Schubert joined the Penfolds adventure, he instilled in the estate's wines the elegance of the great Bordeaux wines that fascinated him so much. Success was not long in coming when the cellar master signed his famous Grange cuvée which crossed Australian borders to conquer wine lovers worldwide. Today, the talented Peter Gago worthily carries on the legacy.
