Introducing a limited release Champagne to toast 175 years of winemaking endeavours. We have re-ignited our love affair with France, a special place for Penfolds, where winemaker Max Schubert was inspired to create Grange. Partnered with Thienot, a respec
ted player in the world of Champagne, Penfolds instigated hands-on involvement throughout the tirage storage to create an extraordinary 2012 Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru. A Champagne worthy of celebrating our past, present and future.

Chardonnay

Two familial chardonnay prompts immediately unleashed: • Lemon citrus (front-palate). Lemon ice-cream with cream (mid-palate). Lemon pie, with a honey, almond accompaniment (back-palate). What … no lemon sorbet? Anywhere?! • Sea-spray, saline and brine elements – prompting textural and symbolic inclusion of the seaside vegetable plant, samphire. Stepping back with the glass wanting allows the measure of this Avize Blanc de Blancs to be revealed – rich and pure with power, energy and liveliness. Whilst spawn from only handfuls of rows off a single-vineyard, great length and dimension prevail. Certainly, whilst clean/precise also exotic/tempting.
