Penfolds Grange--Vintage 2002
South Australia
Not in original wooden case
Tasting Note: The 2002 version was sourced from 77.5 Barossa Valley and 22.5 from McLaren Vale. Included in the blend is 1.5 Cabernet Sauvignon. It spent 17 months in 100 new American oak. Opaque purple, it gives off an ethereal bouquet of violets, saddle leather, blueberry, blackberry, pencil lead, and chocolate. This is followed by a full-bodied wine with tremendous concentration, multiple layers of flavour, ripe tannins, and great balance. Thick and rich, with a 60-second finish, it will slowly blossom over the next 15-20 years and provide pleasure through 2050. It is a legend in the making! Wine Advocate 173, October 2007
