Thursday, April 16, 2015 - Penfolds Grange Wine Dinner at Botrini's (Botrini Restaurant, Athens, Greece): Very similar to the 1997 but more complex. Eukalyptus, camphor, blueberry, floral and spicy notes alongside raspberry and cumin. Full-bodied, silky-textured, balanced and long. At a great stage to enjoy now.

I've been saving it for my retirement, which is now planned for June 30 so glad to hear this is drinking well. Never had Grange so anticipating this bottle and the tasting you attended sounded wonderful.
Cheers
