Robert Parker rating: 97/100

Penfolds Grange is one of Australia's most famous wines, an outstanding wine that has even been officially registered as a heritage icon of South Australia.This wine was launched with the experimental vintage of 1951, expressing the synergy between the Shiraz grape variety and the soil and climate of South Australia.The result is a unique wine that holds a place among the best wines in the world.The estate adopts a "blending" philosophy, using grapes from multiple vineyards and regions (Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Clare Valley, and Magill Estate).

"In 2009, the old style had a deep crimson robe, characterized by a powerful and complex nose."The aromas of red and black fruits, licorice, fennel, and even red meat and black pepper first emerge.After aeration, the aromas of floral notes, mascarpone cheese, fig jam, and vanilla gradually develop.On the palate, the 2009 Grange is captivating and charming.Weight balance.This wine is generous, but both the acidity and tannins are very good.The final taste is very long, leaving flavors of mocha, cocoa, and plum on the palate.

84% Barossa, 8% McLaren, and a little Clare Valley and a little Magill fruit with a small 2% of Cabernet Sauvignon
