Penfolds debuts 2011 new wines

From June 9 to 12, PENFOLDS brought a variety of their latest 2011 wines to guests and journalists at the Beijing Oriental Plaza. Including the 2008 Penfolds Bin 150 Marananga Shiraz, which was first introduced by Penfolds only in China and Austria market in 2011, 2009 Penfolds Bin 138 Grenache Shiraz Mourvèdre, 2008 Thomas Hyland Shiraz, 2009 Thomas Hyland Chardonnay, 2009 Koonunga Hill Cabernet Merlot and 2009 Koonunga Hill Shiraz. Led by a Penfolds brand ambassador named Mark, the guests not only tasted the wines, but also experienced the extraordinary charm of Penfolds. ASC Fine Wines, the sole distributor of PENFOLDS in China were invited to the exciting event. 

The rich aroma and unique taste left deep impression to all the guests. Penfolds Bin 150 Marananga Shiraz, a wine of 2008 vintage, was highly appreciated by Penforlds chief wine maker Peter Gago: "A debut vintage... awaiting the inheritance of those lucky people born in 2008!" Bin 150 is the most good wine of Penfolds Bin series expected in 2011.

Koonunga Hill and Thomas Hyland are also distinctive. Penfolds Koonunga Hill enjoys great popularity among Austrian high quality red wines. Since Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon came from the 1976 vintage, its reputation had already been established by the quality, value and consistency of the collection. The Thomas Hyland range fully demonstrated the pioneering spirit of Penfolds winemaker Thomas Hyland's, who is the son-in-law of Christopher Rawson Penfolds. Thomas Hyland wines are more contemporary, and its grape varieties have a unique aroma and structure.
