Rezensionen & Bewertungen
97 Robert Parker
The 2009 Grange Shiraz is a comprised of 84% Barossa, 8% McLaren, and a little Clare Valley and a little Magill fruit with a small 2% of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend. At this youthful stage, this deep garnet-purple colored wine puts forward a vivid expression of blackberry preserve aromas amid underlying cassis, black cherry, spice box, char-grilled meat and chocolate box notes. Surprisingly medium to full-bodied (it smells much fuller!) with taut flavors that are very closed in the mouth, it has firm, chewy tannins to structure through the long and earthy finish. 406 cases imported to the US. Drink it 2018 to 2035+.

A tiny 2% Cabernet component in 2009, this is sourced from the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Clare Valley and Magill Estate and has spent 18 months in exclusively new American oak hogsheads. The depth and complexity on offer is straight up impressive, blue and black fruit aromas unwind, meaty at times, some dark green herbal notes and a cedary layer of oak lurking below. The palate has a core of essence-like flavour with plenty of oak-derived spice framed around blackberry, blood plum and cola. Tannins are smooth and even, flavours are gently glazed around the dark fruit spectrum, some blue fruits too. This is a wistful Grange that, as always, faithfully reflects the vintage.
94 Wine Spectator
Aromatically pure, with beautiful focus to the blueberry, black currant, espresso and cream character. In the mouth this sprouts prickly tannins and picks up a distinct tomato leaf note that sends the wine in a different direction. This has depth, length and plenty of ripeness without excess weight, but lacks the complete harmony of the best vintages. Best from 2016 through 2030. 406 cases imported

Penfolds
Seitdem australischer Wein in den frühen 1950er-Jahren eine Renaissance erlebte, hat sich Penfolds schon früh als einer der wichtigsten Protagonisten dieser Entwicklung herausgeschält. Im Jahr 1948 wurde Max Schubert leitender Kellermeister dieses fast 200 Jahre alten Weinguts und begann damals seine Produktion vom Bordeaux inspirierter Weine. Die wichtigsten Weinberge des südaustralischen Anwesens verteilen sich auf die besten Weinbauregionen: Adelaide, Barossa Valley, Clare Valley, Coonawarra, die Limestone Coast und McLaren Vale. Hier wird der ikonischste Wein Australiens produziert, der Grange, der nach wie vor die Spitze der Penfolds-Produktion markiert und über fünf durchgehende Jahrzehnte bester Qualität vorweisen kann. Er wird auf Basis von Barossa- und McLaren-Vale-Syrah verschnitten, mit ein wenig Cabernet, und in amerikanischer Eiche ausgebaut. Das Ergebnis ist ein kompletter und kraftvoller Wein, mit hervorragenden Anlagen für die Flaschenreife. Penfolds produziert noch eine Handvoll anderer Spitzenrotweine, einer komplexer als der andere, mit Früchten aus ausgewählten Weinbergstandorten, deren Charakteristika die Weine würdevoll Ausdruck geben.
