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. 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.

The 1987 Grange is a blend of Shiraz (90%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (10%).

Great wine in peak condition. Gobs of ripe berry fruit flavours with a medly of savoury and bottle developed characters. This is truly complex and very long. Still has reasonably firm tannins but they are smothered in sweet fruit. Fantastic wine! Date: Feb 2012; Rating: 98 Points; Bob Campbell; The Real Review

A superb bottle of this now-mature vintage, which has developed true mature Grange character and is drinking beautifully. Raisins, prunes, rum-and-raisin chocolate, roasting pan scrapings, smoked meats and a hint of crushed ants. Rich and concentrated yet beautifully balanced and sensuous. Great texture. Lovely wine, and perfect with 9 marble-score Wagyu. Date: Jun 2021; Rating: 96 Points; Huon Hooke; The Real Review
