Description

The Penfolds Grange Bin 95 Magnum 1.5L 2010 is a product of the iconic Australian winery that represents a rich history of experimentation, persistence, and ambition. This wine is a result of the collision between Ray Beckwith's groundbreaking science and Max Schubert's imaginative winemaking skills, which challenged the conservative forces and resistance of post-war Australia.

Schubert's journey to Europe after World War II to study sherry production resulted in the creation of the first experimental Grange in 1951, but it was not well-received, and Penfolds ordered an end to Grange production in 1957. However, the winemaking team continued to make it in secret, with hidden vintages from 1957 to 1959, and these vintages, along with the experimental ones from 1951 to 1956, are now highly sought after.

Today, Penfolds Grange is one of Australia's most recognised wines and is arguably its most celebrated wine. Grange is officially listed as a Heritage Icon of South Australia and boasts an unbroken line of vintages from the experimental 1951. The Grange style is the original and most powerful expression of Penfolds' multi-vineyard, multi-district, blending philosophy, which utilises fully-ripe, intensely flavoured and textured Shiraz grapes from South Australia's soils and climates.

The Penfolds Grange Bin 95 Magnum 1.5L 2010 comes in a magnum-sized bottle, which is equivalent to two standard wine bottles. The larger bottle size provides several benefits, such as slower ageing and maturation due to less oxygen exposure, resulting in a more refined and complex taste. Additionally, the magnum size is perfect for celebrations and special occasions, making it a great gift or addition to a wine collection.

Review

Very deep purple-black in colour, this is classic Grange - amongst the finest produced - replete with fresh, vibrant and youthful black fruit notes showing some blueberry aromas and accents of camphor, anise and the slightest floral hint plus a whiff of oak in the background to lend a cedar-laced lift to this textbook Shiraz nose. Medium to full-bodied in the mouth, it is very taut and finely constructed showing typically firm, grainy, uniform tannins, great concentration and wonderful persistence on the finish.
