Penfolds Magill Estate

South Australia, Australia

Penfolds has changed how the whole world looks at Australian Shiraz. An urban winery founded in 1844 by a British doctor and his wife, the first stop on the ‘Ultimate Penfolds Experience’ is an intimate peek at the couple’s cottage. Move on to atmospherically lit underground cellars where the late, great twentieth century winemaker Max Schubert hid bottles of his ‘Grange’ line even when ordered to cease experiments in the 1950s; today, the first vintage of this premium blend from across the estate’s sites is Australia’s most expensive wine ever sold at auction. You’ll try this range and more (including recent innovations) in a private room before a sumptuous seven-course degustation menu in the Magill Estate Restaurant, with views of the Mount Lofty Range.
