Penfolds Grange / Chateau d'Yquem Wine Dinner
Description
The most powerful expression of Penfolds multi-vineyard, multi-district blending philosophy, Grange is arguably Australia’s most celebrated wine and is officially listed as a Heritage Icon of South Australia.
Crafted utilising fully ripe, intensely flavoured, and structured Shiraz grapes, the result is a unique Australian style that is now recognised as one of the most consistent of the worlds great wines.
With an unbroken line of vintages from the experimental 1951, Grange clearly demonstrates the synergy between Shiraz and the soils and climates of South Australia
Currently released at $1000 a bottle, older vintages from great vintages are much more expensive.
For this dinner I have assembled some outstanding vintages going back 40 + years
