Founded in 1844 by Dr Christopher and Mary Penfold, Penfolds has grown from a small vineyard in Adelaide to one of Australia’s most renowned and internationally recognised wine producers. From its early beginnings producing fortified wines for medicinal purposes, the winery evolved into a pioneer of Australian fine wine, with a legacy shaped by generations of winemakers and landmark releases such as Grange. Today, Penfolds continues to craft wines that reflect its long history while embracing vineyards and winemaking traditions across Australia and beyond.
