Named in honor of Thomas Hyland, the pioneering son-in-law of Penfolds founders Dr. Christopher and Mary Penfold, who helped propel the winery into a national powerhouse during the late 19th century. This Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted to showcase the rich, expressive terroir of South Australia's premium wine regions. Traditionally matured in a combination of French and American oak, it delivers the signature Penfolds house style of rich dark fruit, subtle minty eucalyptus notes, and structured, fine-grained tannins that pay homage to the brand's historic legacy.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Founded in 1844 by Dr. Christopher and Mary Penfold at Magill Estate near Adelaide, Penfolds is one of Australia's oldest and most iconic wineries, now headquartered in Nuriootpa, South Australia. The estate is celebrated for pioneering a unique house style centered on multi-regional and multi-vineyard blending, a philosophy perfected by legendary winemaker Max Schubert in the mid-20th century. Penfolds is globally renowned for its robust, structured red wines aged in premium oak, most notably its flagship Grange—a rich, collectible Shiraz-based blend—alongside acclaimed expressions like Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz and Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon. Today, while maintaining its deep South Australian roots, the producer has expanded its winemaking footprint to include exceptional terroirs in California, Bordeaux, and beyond.
