Penfolds Grange Bin 95 Shiraz is arguably Australia’s most celebrated wine and is officially listed as a Heritage Icon of South Australia. It is the original and most powerful expression of Penfolds multi-vineyard, multi-district blending philosophy.
Crafted utilising fully-ripe, intensely-flavoured and structured shiraz grapes, the result is a unique Australian style that is now recognised as one of the most consistent of the world’s great wines. With an unbroken line of vintages from the experimental 1951, Grange clearly demonstrates the synergy between shiraz and the soils and climates of South Australia.
This release in 2021 commemorates the 70th anniversary since Grange was first made.
Where to start?! An advancing wave of flavours, understated power and charm. The swell builds and a more persuasive wave follows …and then more, with each sip.
The flavours: laden with shiraz fruits from the Barossa to the North and McLaren to the South - ‘maritime’ and ‘continental’ climatic/varietal diversity. Red and black liquorice, soy and malt, burnt vanilla marshmallow …
Dark chocolate, wrapped in a satiny copha/beeswax candle-like coating. Supple oak nuances - dexterously integrated, no doubt compliments of barrel ferment
The texture: Mouthfeel is creamy/velvety, tannins are tight, creating a dense coating, with a ‘rusty’ edge. Ebullient acidity, whilst lively and racy, is well-managed and protective. To borrow a recently read descriptor – “cherry stone minerality”
