Penfolds Grange 1999

Origin: Barossa Valley, South Australia

Varietal: Shiraz

Wine Analysis: Alc/Vol: 14.50%, Acidity: 7.20 g/L, pH: 3.48

Producer's Notes:

COLOUR: Impenetrable deep red/purple.

NOSE: Blackberry and blueberry fruit interwoven with
perfectly tuned, malty, savoury oak, with
liquorice and anise notes hovering above. Upon
sitting there is a whirling aromatic shift, the wine
becoming more complex, deeper, richer and
darker

PALATE: Layers of fruit, with blackberry and blueberry to
the fore, as suggested by the nose. An underlying
tarriness and new oak are seamlessly absorbed. A
mass of fine grained tannins court a firm tight
finish of great length. The wine possesses the
essential.

**Please be aware that with all vintage wines, the natural corks may crumble if using a regular corkscrew. Please use proper uncorking tools such as port tongs or for wine, an AH So.  Sediment will settle in the bottle over time therefore decanting the port prior to serving will remove this deposit.**
