About Penfolds

Penfolds was founded in 1844 by Dr Christopher Rawson Penfold and his wife Mary at Magill, on the edge of Adelaide in South Australia. In the 1950s chief winemaker Max Schubert created Grange, a Shiraz-based red that became Australia's most famous wine, and Max's Shiraz is named in his honour. Penfolds is famous for multi-regional blending, drawing fruit from several South Australian regions, and its Bin numbers originally referred to the cellar bins where wines were stored.

What does Bin mean on Penfolds wine?

Bin on Penfolds wine refers to the cellar bin where a wine was first stored during ageing. The numbers stuck as wine names, so Bin 389, Bin 128 and Bin 23 each identify a particular style.

Decanting helps young, full-bodied Penfolds reds like Grange, St Henri and Bin 389 open up, and helps separate sediment in older bottles. Koonunga Hill and Max's wines can usually be poured straight from the bottle.
