Wine Summary Image

In 1844 Christopher Rawson Penfold planted vines on the slopes of Magill to produce fortified wines. By 1881 Penfolds was responsible for one third of South Australia's fortified wine production.

Penfolds Bluestone Grand Tawny is a tribute to 150 years of winemaking excellence housed within the bluestone cellar walls of Penfolds Magill Estate. It is a blend of outstanding Tawnies matured in small oak casks for an average of ten years.

The combination of extended barrel maturation and Penfolds tradition of excellence has resulted in a wine with exceptional fruit richness, mellow aged complexity and great length of flavour.

Winery Tasting Notes

Notes Image

Colour

Dark mahogany.

Aroma

The nose is concentrated and well integrated displaying a fine balance of rich fruit, barrel-aged rancio complexity and an earthly spirit lift.

Palate

The palate has a rich fruit intensity balanced by a mellow, smooth mouth-feel due to the long barrel maturation. Rich raisined fruit, butterscotch and nutty complexity merge with lifted barrel-aged characters before a dry, cleansing finish.

Food Matching

Cheese, Dessert

Winery Profile

Australia's winemaking history of less than two hundred years is brief by European measures though, like Europe, punctuated by periods of extreme success and difficult times. From the earliest winemaking days Penfolds has figured prominently and few would argue the importance of Penfolds' influence on Australia's winemaking psyche.

Without the influence of Penfolds the modern Australian wine industry would look very different indeed. Sitting comfortably outside of fad and fashion, Penfolds has taken Australian wine to the world on a grand stage and forged a reputation for quality that is without peer.

Penfolds' reputation for making wines of provenance and cellaring potential might suggest a mantle of tradition and formality is the preferred attire of a company with so much history to defend. But to label Penfolds as simply an established and conventional winemaker, would be to confuse tradition with consideration and to overlook the innovative spirit that has driven Penfolds since its foundation, and continues to find expression in modern times.

If there is anything traditional about Penfolds, it is the practice of constantly reviewing the wines it already does well, and continuously evolving and refining styles as vineyards mature and access to ever older and more varied vineyard sites improves.
