Description

For auction is a single bottle of Penfolds Grange from one of the best vintages in the last 20 years - the legendary 1998 vintage.

The Wine Advocate reviewed the wine as follows:

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.(99 points)Wine Advocate August 2003.

The wine was originally purchased from a Majestic Wine Warehouse and was delivered from their St John's Wood central Fine Wine depot to my local store. It has been stored in a propoer wine store at 14 degrees ever since. In perfect condition.

Please note that I do not accept payment by Paypal. This is due to their excessive fees, which most sellers then pass on to the buyers. Bank transfers are free, instant and just as secure. Happy to accept cheques from UK banks and cash if collecting in person.
