Overview
Overview
With a rich and established history, Penfolds Club Tawny has been instrumental in shaping what is known today as Penfolds ‘House Style’. Whilst the first releases were sourced from a single vintage; 1950, 1953 and 1956, Club Tawny today is crafted as a multi-varietal, multi-vintage blend, encompassing the Penfolds winemaking philosophy. A youthful Tawny, Club displays depth and intensity, relying on a wonderful combination of fruit and spirit to provide freshness, weight and a full, flavoursome finish. Matured in seasoned oak barrels, the Club Tawny has a minimum average blended age of three years. As the cornerstone of Penfolds range of exceptional fortified wines, Club continues to provide a well-balanced Tawny demonstrating a consistency of style and quality.

Penfolds Club Tawny is crafted utilising multiple vintages and varieties to ensure a consistent and balanced wine is maintained year after year.
The Penfolds Team
Key to the success of Penfolds has been a lineage of visionary winemakers. There have only ever been four Chief Winemakers at the helm of Penfolds – Max Schubert, Don Ditter, John Duval and Peter Gago, each a custodian of a rich winemaking tradition that goes back for more than 170 years.
Our current Penfolds winemaking team has more than 100 years between them as Penfolds winemakers. They are constantly refining and improving their work, whilst honouring the winemaking techniques of their predecessors.
