Description

Grange is both Penfolds' and arguably Australia's most famous wine and is officially listed as a Heritage Icon of South Australia.  This vintage has been consistently rated 90+ on every wine rating scale.  


***The value listed for this bottle of wine is an average market value only.  We have seen bottles of this vintage sell for well above $500!**


Grange boasts an unbroken line of vintages from the experimental 1951 and clearly demonstrates the synergy between Shiraz and the soils and climate of South Australia. Penfolds Grange displays fully-ripe, intensely-flavoured and textured Shiraz grapes in combination with new American oak. The result is a unique Australian style that is now recognised as the most consistent of the world's great wines.


A fantastic follow up to the 1998 vintage with the structure to age for years to come. John Duval has produced a wine here with brilliant concentrated and deep set blackberry and mulberry notes with a touch of vanilla and mocha from the fine oak.
