Established in 1844, Penfolds stands as one of Australia’s most historic and respected wineries. From early experimentation by Mary Penfold to the groundbreaking leadership of Max Schubert—creator of the iconic Grange, Penfolds has consistently pushed boundaries in quality and innovation. The winery’s heritage is built on craftsmanship, vision, and a commitment to producing wines that achieve worldwide recognition while remaining true to their South Australian roots.

Penfolds St Henri Shiraz 2016 is a strong choice for those who appreciate a more traditional, composed expression of Australian Shiraz with proven ageing potential. Made without new oak and matured in large, seasoned vats, it places the focus firmly on fruit purity, texture, and structure rather than barrel influence. The 2016 vintage is highly regarded for its balance and depth, offering immediate approachability alongside the ability to develop further complexity with time in the cellar. For collectors, it represents one of the most consistent and quietly respected styles in the Penfolds portfolio, while for drinkers it delivers a refined, food-friendly Shiraz that stands apart from more overtly oaked expressions.
