Description

For auction is a wonderful bottle of Penfolds Grange from the fantastic vintage 2006. Penfolds have given this wine a top vintage marking in their "Rewards of Patience" and detailed that it has a peak drinking period of 2016 to 2050.

Officially listed as a Heritage Icon of South Australia, the Grange style is the original and most powerful expression of Penfolds multi-vineyard, multi-district blending philosophy. The 2006 Grange follows a Penfolds pattern of great ‘sixes’.

Classically proportioned and deftly balanced, it lies in the footsteps of the 1966, 1976, 1986 and 1996 vintages. Peter Gago says, "There is plenty of substance, fruit sweetness and latent power. With its overall richness, buoyancy of fruit and layered textures, it will take some time to unravel and evolve. Deceptively approachable at release… don’t be fooled! A profound and complete offer, akin to a mix of the 2002 and 2004 Grange vintages… not a bad credential on any curriculum vitae. Very Penfolds! Very Barossa! Very Grange!"

Tasting Notes:

Colour - Deep blood-red, dense core.
Nose - Very Penfolds, very Barossa, very Grange!
Quintessential Grange, intense, complex dark chocolate/blackberry/quince/expresso aromas and hints of smoked meats/liquorice/nutmeg and soy
Palate - Profoundly deep and substantial. Fresh and buoyant with plush mouth-filling dark chocolate/dark berry/expresso flavours, underlying roasted chestnut/malt notes and plentiful but supple tannins. Classic, elemental Grange with wonderful fruit sweetness, complexity and vigour.

Producer Notes:

Peter Gago (Chief Winemaker)..."2006 Grange continues the theme of even vintages. It has the sustained tannin structure and voluminous fruit of 2002 and the fragrance, power and generosity of 2004. It is an incredibly seductive wine, but it has an iron fist glove quality. Like all great Grange vintages, it needs more time to reveal itself. Like 1976, 1986 and 1996, 2006 promises to evolve brilliantly in the cellar."

This Grange is 98% Shiraz and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon.

The wine was bought by me on release and has been properly stored at 14 degrees ever since. This wine cost over £250.00 a bottle upon release and has already increased in value. A true investment opportunity, both finacially or to own a classic wine that will be superb to drink in years to come.

The wine is in perfect condition.
