| Description: | 2001 Penfolds Grange Bin 95 Shiraz - 98 pts!. It is always a treat to taste Australia's most famous wine Penfolds' Grange cuvee the word Hermitage has been dropped because of legal issues. The 2001 Grange is one of the few vintages of this cuvee to be composed of 100% Shiraz the others being 1951 1952 1963 1999 and 2000. Aged 17 months in 100% American oak and tipping the scales at 14.5% alcohol the 2001 is undeniably one of the top examples of this wine. At this stage it appears to eclipse the 1998 and 1996. Inky/blue/purple to the rim with a stunning perfume of blueberries blackberries chocolate graphite and earth it boasts good acidity huge tannins magnificent concentration and a multilayered textured mouthfeel. It is a big but impeccably well-balanced Shiraz that should shed some of its structure and tannin over the next 4-5 years and be at its best between 2010-2030+. RP |
