Penfolds Grange 1996 - 750ml

Its quality and consistency are formidable, though to deny there are vintage variations would be crazy. If I was a betting man, Id put money on this being a top-notch Grange. Fermented in 100% new American oak as always, this Grange is Shiraz, with around 6% Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend. It is dense and black, with a tight, glossy layering of fruit immediately apparent on the nose. Fantastically rich and sweet, black fruits are the main focus with a spicy, Dundee-cake richness underneath. On the palate it is chocolaty and very thick and dense, with a weight of dry, fruity flavour and crunch of sweet blackcurrant. Hints of chocolate, and the finish showing fine tannins and creamy, spicy oak against balanced acidity. Terrific purity of black fruits drive into a long finish. Very fine indeed.
