Widely regarded as one of Australia’s benchmark fortified wines, the Penfolds Grandfather Tawny rightfully lays claim to such a title. Crafted from a blend of Tawnies matured in oak casks for an average of 14 years, the further maturation in Penfolds’ Grandfather Solera System for six more years, resulting in a final minimum average blended age of 20 years. Expect elegant notes of raisin-packed fruitcake, nutty praline, crème brulee, oxidised Oloroso Sherry, walnut baklava and liquorice allsorts. Serve lightly chilled alongside cheese, festive fare, nutty desserts, chocolate or rich pâté, and take your palate on a trip back to the mid-1800s.
