Penfolds has been producing remarkable wines for over 160 years and indisputably lead the development of Australian fine wine in the modern era. The introduction of Penfolds Grange Hermitage in 1951 forever changed the landscape of Australian fine wine, since then a series of standout wines - both red and white - have been released under the Penfolds masthead.

It is a love thing. You either drink Penfolds every day or you have yet to try it. One of the first things I did when I moved to Bermuda was to find the local source.
