1 x 75cl. The producer, Penfolds, has a history that's much more than just the story of Grange. In 1844, Dr Christopher and Mary Penfold planted vine cuttings they had brought from Europe at Magill Estate in South Australia. Through innovation and hard work, Penfolds became South Australia's largest winery by the early twentieth century. Winemaker Max Schubert walked into a successful operation in 1948. His experiments with different blends of wines and the use of American oak led to the creation of ground-breaking wines. The Grange project started in 1951, but it was officially shelved several years later, although wines were made and stored in secret until it was officially re-instated in 1960. Yattarna Chardonnay was first released in 1998 with the 1995 vintage. The name 'Yattarna' is drawn from First Nations culture, meaning 'little by little; gradually'. It was chosen to honour the 144 winemaking trials it took to perfect our flagship white wine.
