Penfolds® Penfolds Grange Bin 95 2018 – 7855822766292

A robust Grange from a lauded vintage, this wields sheer power with such compelling prowess. Uncompromising Grange.

There are rich blackberries and plums on offer, together with brazen oak and abundant notes of blackcurrants, black cherries, charcoal, cola and hard brown spices. So fleshy and intense.

Dark-chocolate and cocoa-powder aromas and flavours here, too. The tannins are polished and long, extruding deep into the finish and holding endlessly.

Dark chocolate, black cherry, dark plum and more. Impressive. Brazen. One of the great Granges that will drink magnificently for decades to come.
