Polish Hill River
Polish Hill River, a renowned sub region in the Clare Valley wine region, boasts distinctive features–slightly higher elevation, unique slate and shale soils, and cool nights with warm days– ideal for cultivating riesling. This supports the retention of acidity, enhancing the freshness and vibrancy of the wine, often resulting in citrus, floral and mineral characteristics.
Cellar Reserve Polish Hill River Riesling is a hand-crafted, small-batch wine that is an ode to the Polish Hill River sub region and our Cellar Reserve range. It offers lavender and citrus notes and can last over 20 years with careful cellaring.
HIGH EDEN
We source fruit from High Eden, a sub region within Eden Valley, for wines such as Bin 51 Eden Valley Riesling in exceptional vintages. And whilst fruit sourcing for Reserve Bin A Adelaide Hills Chardonnay varies, it is usually crafted from the best-performing sub region in the Adelaide Hills, including that of Piccadilly Valley.
Oakville
Penfolds presence in Oakville in California’s Napa Valley celebrates geographical distinction and a sense of place. Our curiosity revealed diverse soils with excellent drainage and a climate moderated by its proximity to San Pablo Bay. Here, cabernet sauvignon grapes of concentrated complexity thrive, allowing Penfolds winemakers to uphold our quality first philosophy. The year 2023 marked the release of our inaugural Oakville Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon – a wine that exemplifies the region with energetic blue fruits and a luxurious plush texture.
