2019 Grange by NIGO

Introducing Grange by NIGO, our first-ever design takeover of our flagship wine by Human Made Creative Director in our 180th anniversary year. Inspired by NIGO’s visit to Penfolds Magill Estate Winery, he has re-imagined the packaging design of Grange for this one-off series. Each box is individually numbered and includes a bandana and bottle neck tag designed by NIGO, plus an authenticity certificate.
Crafted utilising fully-ripe, intensely-flavoured and structured shiraz grapes, Grange is recognised as one of the most consistent of the world’s great wines. Explore a pure symphony of fruit with 2019 vintage. Full-bodied, powerful and balanced.
2019 Grange has been likened by the Penfolds winemaking team to those originally crafted by Max Schubert. It has also been posited as a decennial sequence – set to follow in the footsteps of the now highly revered 2009, 1999 and 1989 vintages. ​

Awards & Accolades

null null null
98+

Cohesion, vigour, sheen, poise. Fresh and balanced. Neither exaggerated nor over-ripe – lively blueberry and other youthful blue/black fruits bely the maturation timeline of this alluring blend. Certainly befitting this style, unmistakable barrel-ferment characters are undoubtedly more pronounced on palate than nose. If the mid-palate is somewhat formidable (ably supporting a thick/dense core), by contrast the back-palate is creamy and caressingly endearing. Expansive and full – washing away all ahead of it. Texturally, chewy/grainy tannins and just-right acidity. All CV mandates of this 2019 Grange vintage are now accredited.

Tyson Stelzer

""All the layers of dark chocolate, liquorice and dark fruit cake that we love of Grange are here in bountiful exuberance, filling a palate with a sense of perfect polish and full completeness from start to long finish. For all of its structural confidence, there is an intricately crafted, fine-grained seamlessness to the tannins that carries a tail of uninterrupted drive and carry. This is a brilliant Grange which makes a tremendous declaration of the power of blending in carefully singling out the very finest sites to produce a wine of incredible poise and purity even in a season as hot and dry as this.""

19/20

Jancis Robinson

""Very dark purple. Heady and concentrated but too young to be very expressive. Massive! So concentrated it’s almost bursting at the seams of its attempt at a corset. There’s a certain framework that’s desperately trying to contain that exuberant fruit. It’s a marvel that they manage to make the selection but this is pretty impressive and exciting. Drink 2028 – 2050. 14.5% alc – 19 points.""

Colour

Deep, dark and bright.

Nose

Benchmark. Automatically recognisable - formic and glacial higher notes. Beneath, a more familial oaked nuttiness recedes to reveal aromas of black licorice/anise/black olive. A shroud of condensed glazed fruits surrenders to reveal a fresher disposition … a coulis of berries and stone fruits; boiled beetroot. Upon sitting, a sprinkle of lavender and exotic spices almost completes the aromatic package – well, at least for another minute or two. Early days.

Palate

Cohesion, vigour, sheen, poise. Fresh and balanced. Neither exaggerated nor over-ripe – lively blueberry and other youthful blue/black fruits bely the maturation timeline of this alluring blend. Certainly befitting this style, unmistakable barrel-ferment characters are undoubtedly more pronounced on palate than nose.

Vintage conditions

The Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale regions both recorded well below long-term average winter rainfall. Conversely, the vineyards in Coonawarra enjoyed 22% above average winter rainfall, providing the vines with excellent moisture profiles leading into spring. Irrigation was crucial to keep vines in good health. The proximity of the Southern Ocean played an important role in moderating temperatures in Coonawarra, allowing for a high-quality harvest, albeit with a smaller crop than average. Although yields were down, the quality was outstanding with excellent colours, firm tannin profiles and intense flavours.
