Penfolds Grange--Vintage 1981
Barossa Valley, South Australia
"It has always exhibited phenomenal quantities of ripe fruit, an opulent, sweet palate, a dark purple color, and gobs of glycerin and alcohol in the lusty finish. At some tastings it appeared to be cut from the same cloth as the glorious 1971 and 1976. At other times it revealed a rustic side. In this tasting, it ranked as one of the great wines of the eighties, rivaling the 1982 and being eclipsed only by the nearly perfect 1986." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Issue 100, 8/31/95
