No other red wine in Australia can rival the reputation, consistent quality or proven development pattern of Penfolds Grange. The winemaking process involves great attention to detail; from selecting the best possible grapes sourced from low-yielding, old Shiraz vines through to fermentation and fastidious oak maturation. Generally good weather for the vintage, a cool summer followed by a dry harvest. A meticulous regimen for vineyard selection, coupled with exacting winecraft, gives each Grange a different character. A seductively smooth wine this year, early developing and with slippery tannins. Maturation in new American oak hogsheads for twenty months. Alcohol 14.2%
