Description

4 bottles of Penfolds Grange. Two of the 1997 vintage, 1 of the famous 1998 vintage and 1 of the 1999 vintage.

Robert Parker ratings are 94, 99 for the 97 and 98 vintages respectively. Not sure why the 99 not rated by him. Wine Spectator 94 for the 99 vintage and other critics 95/96.

The 98 is probably the finest wine to have been produced in australia in the last 20 years. See below

"The 1998 Grange will be legendary. A blend of 97% Shiraz and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, it tips the scales at a whopping 14.5% alcohol. The inky/purple color is followed by an extraordinarily intense nose of creme de cassis intermixed with blueberry and floral notes. As the wine sits in the glass, aromas of meat, plums, and cola also emerge. It is a seamless effort with sweet tannin, well-integrated acidity, sensational extract, and layer upon layer of blackberry and cassis fruit that stain the palate and fill the mouth. Its harmony, freshness, and remarkable length (the finish lasts nearly a minute) suggest an all-time classic. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2030."
Wine Advocate #148 (Aug 2003) Robert Parker

"Penfolds Shiraz South Australia Grange 1999. Not quite as broad and generous as riper vintages, but tremendously classy, offering smoky, earthy blackberry, plum, and currant flavors that compete effectively against cedary oak on the long finish. The flavors gain with each sip, fanning out impressively. It's tight now, but it could age beautifully. Best after 2009." Annual Top Picks, Wine Spectator, New York, NY - U.S., 31 December 2004

Wines can be collected in SW London or the City, or posted by courier for an extra charge
