Penfolds, established in Adelaide in 1844 by Mary and Christopher Rawson Penfold, is a pillar of the Australian wine industry, recognized for both its rich history and its pioneering innovations in winemaking.
The winery has been influential since its inception, starting with fortified wines and evolving into a producer of premium red and white wines under the leadership of visionary winemakers like Max Schubert.
Schubert’s introduction of techniques and styles from Bordeaux in the 1950s, including the creation of the now-iconic Penfolds Grange, has significantly shaped its global reputation.
Today, under Chief Winemaker Peter Gago, Penfolds continues to push the boundaries of winemaking, combining traditional techniques with modern innovations.
Celebrated for the complexity and longevity of its wines, particularly the Grange, which has garnered international acclaim and numerous awards, Penfolds remains a symbol of excellence and a leader in the wine industry, continually expanding its reach and exploring new territories like California, Bordeaux, and China.
