Penfolds’ new limited edition glass ampoule, which stores the extraordinary 2004 Kallima Block 42 Cabernet Sauvignon, is the definition of wine extravagance. It champions the scientific precision of wine preservation, excellent design casing, and carefully planned metal work. Resembling a needle, it's limited to a release of only 12 vessels. This purchase is a no-brainer for the ultimate wine connoisseur.

Upon buying one, the client gets, "a special opening ceremony for the owner...the winemaker will travel to the destination of choice, where the ampoule will be ceremoniously removed from its glass plumb-bob casing and opened using a specially designed, tungsten-tipped, sterling silver scribe-snap."
