Penley Estate is an Australian winery based in Coonawarra, a renowned wine region in South Australia. The winery was founded by Kym Tolley, a member of a family with a long history in viticulture, in 1988.
Coonawarra is known for its excellent wine production, especially for red wines, especially Cabernet Sauvignon. The area has a special terroir with a special soil called "terra rossa," an iron-rich, limestone-like clay soil that is ideal for viticulture. This gives the wines from Coonawarra their distinctive character and complexity.
Penley Estate has established itself as a leading winery in Coonawarra, producing a wide range of wines, with a main focus on Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. In addition to red wines, Penley Estate also produces some white wines, including Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
The Penley Estate philosophy is based on creating wines with strong terroir expression, with an emphasis on preserving the characteristics of the grape varieties and vineyards from which they originate. Penley Estate wines are often elegant, well-balanced and well-structured, making them suitable for both direct consumption and aging.
