BACK TO THE FUTURE
Fortified winemaking at Penfolds reflects a link with yesteryear evoking memories of the past dating back to the 1850s and the first plantings of its founder, Dr. Christopher Penfold, at Magill Winery in South Australia. The craft of fortified winemaking continues at Penfolds today, with the tawny style focusing on the synergies of multiple components in a blending blueprint honouring the house style.
Many of these beautifully concentrated and complex wines are living history thrust back into another millennium and now transcending the passage of three centuries. The 50 Year Old Rare Tawny is a symbol of Penfolds heritage, typifying collaboration and shared creative expression. It embodies craftsmanship and an intervowen dexterity of winemaking and time. The wine encased captures the legacy of past and the aspirations of present winemakers, spanning almost a century of fortified history in one blend.

CUSTODIANS
The Penfolds 50 Year Old Rare Tawny is much more than a celebration of creative artistic endeavour. It is the ultimate reflection of a Penfolds philosophy that binds together generations of like-minded Penfolds Winemakers.
The Penfolds mindset honours time-proven tradition, style, innovation and quality above all else. Not unlike the winemakers who set aside an exception vintage nearly a century ago in 1915, there is a profound understanding of the unique legacy that each generation leaves for the next.
So when you open the Penfolds 50 Year Old Rare Tawny, you are tapping into the spirit and vigour of winemakers who had the foresight to preserve the best vintages of their age to care for their successors.
Today, the Penfolds stable of fortifieds carries on a fine legacy with a respected collection including Penfolds Club Tawny to the Great Grandfather Rare Tawny, first released in 1994 to celebrate Penfolds 150th anniversary.
