The original and most powerful expression of Penfolds multi-vineyard, multi-district blending philosophy, Grange is arguably Australia’s most celebrated wine and is officially listed as a Heritage Icon of South Australia. 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.

Blend: 87% Syrah & 13% Cabernet Sauvignon

Vineyard Notes: Barossa Valley (including Kalimna Vineyard), Clare Valley, Magill Estate (Adelaide), McLaren Vale.

Vintage Notes: An unusual season with a hotter than average summer followed by a mild but wet vintage.

Ageing: Eighteen months in new American oak hogsheads.

Critic tasting note: (1981 vintage) "Kräftiges, zart unterockertes Karmingranat. Zart erdig unterlegtes rotes Waldbeerkonfit, etwas Velour, Nuancen von Cassis. Im Kern etwas unsauber, trockene Tannine, vielleicht ein leichter Kork, Havanatabak im Nachhall, bleibt diesmal etwas kurz, sicher nicht die beste Flasche, zuletzt 2011 mit 94 Punkten bewertet. Peter Moser" - 87/100Falstaff
