Description

1996 Penfolds Grange Bin 95 is one of the greatest vintages produced with a constantly high rating from the critic's. A true legend and Australia's best wine.

As you will see the bottles are in perfect condition, with super labels and excellent capsules, with the wine being in to the neck.

Bottles etched 96 GRANGE for added security.

Still in the original tissue paper and taken out of a box of 6 that have been stored in my Eurocave since purchase from a well known wine importer.

Wine Searcher score 93/100 with an approximate average price (including vat) of £380

Some professional reviews below

97 points James Halliday

*Five Stars* Medium to full red-purple, still bright after five years, vibrant cherry and plum fruit aromas more than handle the oak on the bouquet; the palate is sumptuous, but not heavy, the cherry and plum flavours tracking the bouquet. The wine has a very long finish, with fine, integrated tannins. Destined to become one of the great Granges. (7/ 2011)

97 points Wine & Spirits

No note given. (4/ 2001)

96 points Wine Enthusiast

*Cellar Selection* As unevolved as they are, the dense and multilayered aromas and flavors are truly impressive here. Black currant, herb, tea, oak, vanilla, maple, anise, blueberries and more--it could be an excercise in overkill, if all the parts weren't in such fine harmony. Really big, but with excellent balance, this reveals much less now than the RWT. It is everything a flagship wine in its infancy should be--immaculate component parts, superbly full on the palate, possessed of great length and incredible potential. An absolute keeper to visit in 7, 15 or 25 years. (3/ 2001)

95 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Deep garnet colored, 1996 Grange is scented with stewed plums, warm cherries and mince meat with hints of Ceylon tea, black olives and Chinese five spice. Medium-full bodied and with a generous amount of flesh on the palate, it gives very crisp acid and a medium-firm level of grainy tannins, finishing long. The layered complexity of this wine is just beginning to emerge, promising better things to come. (1/ 2012)

95 points Wine Spectator

Firm in texture, with slightly gritty tannins around a gorgeous beam of black cherry, blueberry and plum flavors. This is beautifully focused and complete on the nose, but it's a bit chewy on the palate. Built for aging. Needs some rich food to balance the tannins at this point. Gets better as it warms in the glass. (Web-2008)
