Penfolds Grange Shiraz 2021 750ml
Penfolds Grange Shiraz 2021 is the latest release of Australia’s most iconic and collectible wine, renowned for its bold character, cellar-worthy structure, and unmistakable Penfolds style. Crafted predominantly from Shiraz, with a small percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon, this vintage continues the Grange tradition of opulence, power, and ageability.
In the glass, it presents a deep, inky crimson hue. Aromatically intense, it opens with layers of dark plum, blackberry compote, and black licorice, interwoven with mocha, anise, smoked meats, and subtle notes of sandalwood and new American oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and richly textured, showcasing concentrated black fruits, dark chocolate, espresso, and savoury undertones. Finely-grained tannins and a vibrant acid line give the wine balance and tension, while the oak provides depth without overwhelming the fruit.
Matured for 18 months in 100% new American oak hogsheads, the 2021 Grange exemplifies the craftsmanship and blending mastery Penfolds is famed for. This vintage will reward long-term cellaring (20–40+ years), developing further complexity and tertiary nuances over time.
