April 6, 2024 - What a great wine to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. We have had the wine for about 35 years and it was checked and recorked in 2016 by Penfolds. I remember at the time having a small taste and felt it was past it. The Penfolds wine expert assured us it was fine but that we should drink it soon. Last night we were both blown away about how good the wine was. Still vibrant colour and no signs of bricking. Everything perfectly on place. Absolutely delicious.

August 8, 2023 - Outstanding dark colour, guessed as a 15 year old shiraz not a near 40 year old wine. Huge voluminous nose that speaks of penfolds oak treatment, huge rich concentrated berry aromas with cedar notes, you can just keep smelling this all night. Palate same level as bouquet - clearly shiraz royalty robed in plush smooth fruit at epitome of integration. What a treat.

November 26, 2021 - Drank with family for Thanksgiving. Have had this magnum since 2000. Excellent but needed drinking soon. Very fragile cork, double decanted and strained about 2 hours before drinking. Highly recommend consuming soon.

September 1, 2020 - Pulled cork decanted and drank over 1.5hrs . A magnificent Grange .. displaying all the characters of pre-90s great vintages. It drank perfectly from the first to last sip. Drink now .. but I suspect this will remain at its peak for the next 5yrs
