Informative and delicious - A very informative tour was followed by a tasting of six of the highlights from the Penfolds range (ending in Grange), with a bonus tasting of the Magill Estate, and then a delicious lunch with 3 matching wines (generously poured). Our guide Rick was on hand afterwards to pour us a couple of bonus wines to try, to round off a very enjoyable day - thank you Rick and all the staff.

Great Wine, Food and Tour! - Touring Penfold's Magill Estate was one of the highlights on our recent visit to Australia. We chose the Iconic tour and got to spend an amazing 4 hours on the property. We walked through the production area, the cellar and even the founder's original cottage on the property and got to learn a lot about the long and illustrious history of Penfold's . Then we had an in-depth tasting of six of their premier wines and finished with a lovely and delicious paired wine lunch. Our guide was so friendly and informative as was all the staff in the tasting room and restaurant. Penfold's is now our favorite winery!

Wonderful experience & informative - The tour of the original home of the Penfolds was interesting as was the tour of the process for handling the newly picked grapes! The wine tasting and the knowledge provided by our guide was the highlight!

Worth every cent - This is just amazing. We did a tour with Jonah who went over and above to show us around the winery. He really shone when we sat down for a tasting of half a dozen wines including Grange. Lunch was spectacular. It was a set menu, but with 2 dishes per couple to share for each course. Matched wines with each course. We couldn’t finish the deserts. We bought a couple of bottles of wine for very close to retail bottle shop prices. After all that we were supposed to do a normal wine tasting, but literally were too full and content to manage it. Being Penfolds, there wasn’t a bad wine all day, and plenty that were memorable. Make sure your partner doesn’t drink red wine and you can end up with a double taste of Grange ;) I’m sorry, but I haven’t really conveyed just how good this experience is - just do it.

Great tour, disappointing lunch - The tour and wine tasting was fantastic and we would give it five stars easily. The disappointment for us and reason for the lower rating was the three course lunch afterwards. We had read the Kitchen menu beforehand which looked great but unfortunately our set menu was not enjoyable. The lamb was tough and we still aren’t sure exactly what the entree was. Dessert was good. We wished we had just booked the tour and booked lunch separately ourselves so we could have selected off the website menu.
