✨ Technical Specifications
Penfolds g4 represents an extraordinary evolution of the legendary Grange philosophy, blending four exceptional vintages of Australia's most famous red wine: 2002, 2004, 2008, and 2016. Crafted under the visionary guidance of Chief Winemaker Peter Gago, this ultra-rare release takes Penfolds' historic multi-regional, multi-vineyard blending ethos to its logical zenith by introducing multi-vintage blending. Each component vintage brings its own unique character to the blend: the structure of 2002, the elegance of 2004, the power of 2008, and the vibrant freshness of 2016. Matured in premium American oak, this monumental wine is a seamless, powerful expression of South Australian Shiraz that honors the pioneering spirit of Max Schubert while forging a new legacy in luxury winemaking.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1844 by Dr. Christopher and Mary Penfold at Magill Estate in the Mount Lofty foothills, Penfolds represents one of the foundational cornerstones of Australian fine wine. Over nearly two centuries, the house evolved from crafting fortified tonics to pioneering modern multi-regional and multi-vineyard blending across South Australia's premier terroirs, including the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, and Coonawarra. Soils span from rich terra rossa over limestone to weathered ironstone and alluvial clays under warm Mediterranean climates tempered by maritime breezes. Under the long-term stewardship of Chief Winemaker Peter Gago, the house adheres to Sustainable Winegrowing Australia standards while preserving an unmistakable house style defined by meticulous fruit classification, submerged-cap fermentation, and structured maturation in American and French oak hogsheads. Benchmark bottlings such as Grange (Bin 95), Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon, Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz, and Yattarna Chardonnay define the apex of collectible New World viticulture.
