2014 Grange, Penfolds, South Australia

There’s a reason that Grange is one of the great wines of the world, and that’s because it performs year in, year out. This, the 2014, is gorgeous: elegant and finessed, there’s remarkable purity to the fruit, and layers that unfurl on the palate: it’s a superb Grange, one for the ages.

Tasting notes

Rich, concentrated and intense, the 2014 Grange delivers exactly what we've come to expect from this Penfolds icon wine. It's full-bodied, velvety in feel and loaded with plummy fruit, framed in vanilla and cedar. Dense, powerful and tannic, it should prove to be long lived, even by Grange standards. Gago doesn't rate the vintage overall that highly, but he says the selection this year for Grange was a bit more stringent and that production levels were just average. There are still over 1,000 cases for the United States.
