Penfolds Grange 2008 750ml

Grange is arguably Australia’s most celebrated wine and is officially listed as a Heritage Icon of South Australia. Grange boasts an unbroken line of vintages from the experimental 1951 and clearly demonstrates the synergy between Shiraz and the soils and climates of South Australia. Penfolds Grange utilises fully-ripe, intensely-flavoured and textured Shiraz grapes. The result is a unique Australian style that is now recognised as one of the most consistent of the world’s great wines. The Grange style is the original and most powerful expression of Penfolds multi-vineyard, multi-district, blending philosophy.
A classic Penfolds year. Receives 100 points from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate (Lisa Perrotti-Brown, MW) and Wine Spectator 2013.
Difficult growing conditions were overcome by meticulous vineyard management, fruit selection from physiologically earlier-ripening older vines
