✨ Technical Specifications

Penfolds g5 represents the ultimate expression of the house's blending philosophy, seamlessly uniting five exceptional vintages of their flagship Grange: 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2018. Conceived by Chief Winemaker Peter Gago as the final release in the highly collectible 'g' series, this ultra-rare multi-vintage blend transcends traditional vintage boundaries. It delivers the signature power, dark fruit concentration, and savory complexity of Grange, beautifully integrated with premium American oak, while achieving a unique harmony where the distinct characteristics of each individual season elevate the final blend to monumental heights.

🍾 About the Producer

Founded in 1844 by Dr. Christopher Rawson Penfold and his wife Mary at the Magill Estate in South Australia, Penfolds is one of Australia's oldest and most iconic wine producers. The estate achieved legendary international acclaim during the 1950s under visionary chief winemaker Max Schubert, who created Penfolds Grange and revolutionized the country's winemaking techniques. Driven by a celebrated philosophy of multi-regional and multi-varietal blending, Penfolds sources exceptional fruit across historic Australian terroirs—such as the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, and Coonawarra—as well as select premier global regions. The house is universally revered for powerful, impeccably structured, and long-lived wines, led by its flagship Grange, Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon, and celebrated Bin series.
