Penfold's Grange--Vintage 1996
South Australia
In original wooden cases
The 1996 Penfold's Grange has all the hallmarks of a great vintage. Here's a wine with very high fruit definition and substance; an explosion of meaty/gamey/plum/prune/liquorice aromas and coffee/chocolate nuances. A mass of well-seasoned oak lies behind this dense curtain of fruit. The palate is decadently rich with lashings of sweet fruit, deep set choco-plum/prune/mocha/liquorice flavours, supple, ripe but pronounced tannins building up to a firm finish (99 points). Certainly it is in the same class as the 1990 and 1991 with a cellar life of decades. - Andrew Caillard MW, 2001
