JA 98

janeanson.com, July 2023

Amazingly dense and young in colour, this just stretches out in front of you. Dense, dark brambled blackberry and raspberry fruits, concentrated yet with lightness of touch, powerful but finely boned tannins, with waves...

MW Bob Campbell, May 2004

Big and hugely dense wine with attractive spice, licorice, tar, fruit cake etc etc. A big and powerful wine that promises much. Long.

James Halliday, July 2003

Concentrated blackberry and licorice fruit, the oak perfectly integrated. A powerful, masculine style, a touch more austere than the '98.
WS 94

Wine Spectator, September 2004

Not quite as broad and generous as riper vintages but tremendously classy offering smoky earthy blackberry plum and currant fruit that compete effectively against cedary oak on the long finish. The flavors gain with each...

Wine Enthusiast, November 2004

An excellent wine as it always is but this vintage of Grange is one that isn't just built for aging it requires it. Its flavors and aromas require a good 20 minutes in the glass to show themselves but with time pretty...

This is a dense elixir, at its optimal drinking window. Notes of matcha, chashu and minty liniment. Almost port-like with incense and further aromas of the Chinese medicine cabinet across the finish. Large-framed and...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, October 2004

The 1999 Grange does not come close to such great Granges as the 1998 1996 1991 and 1990. Dense ruby/purple to the edge with a bouquet of blackberries mulberries and floral-like aromas and medium to full body the 1999 has...

Jancis Robinson's Purple Pages, October 2008

Lively, fresh, racy – one of the leaner, more austere, more claret-like examples. Exceptionally dry finish – really tough in fact at the moment. 17.5/20

The original and most powerful expression of Penfolds multi-vineyard, multi-district blending philosophy, Grange is arguably Australia’s most celebrated wine and is officially listed as a Heritage Icon of South Australia. Crafted utilizing fully-ripe, intensely-flavored and structured Shiraz grapes, the result is a unique Australian style that is now recognized as one of the most consistent of the world’s great wines. With an unbroken line of vintages from the experimental 1951, Grange clearly demonstrates the synergy between Shiraz and the soils and climates of South Australia.
