The ultimate gift for the old man, port lover or the guy with expensive taste and a passion for the finer stuff!
They ain’t kidding when they slap “Limited Release” on the bottle. Only 3,000 bottles of Penfolds Great Grandfather are produced each release – selected from the finest reserve wines maturing in their Kalimna Tawny Cellar with an average age of 20 years. The blend is then given another 10 years to mature in oak giving it an average age of 30 years.
Packaged in a lockable Penfolds Great Grandfather branded gift box, the bottle is wax sealed and comes complete with Penfolds branded glass cork stopper stored in a small box hiding in a sliding compartment in the bottom of the gift box, included is a presentation booklet explaining the Great Grandfather story.
