PENFOLDS g3 2008/2012/2014 ««««« Drink 2025 to 2060.

An expertly blended and limited bottling of three Grange vintages 2008, 2012 and 2014. A wine that explores the essence of Grange. The proportions of each vintage have been carefully matched to create a unique expression of the Penfolds House Style. A multi-vineyard, multi-regional, multi-vintage wine comprising 100 percent Grange DNA and evoking the traditions of past Penfolds winemakers.

Deep crimson. Intense dark chocolate, ripe blackberry, dark plum, roasted walnut and liquorice aromas. Dense, compact and saturated with deep-set blackberry graphite, dark plum fruits and fine-plentiful chalky brambly textures. Intense vanilla, mocha and roasted nut notes with fresh, integrated acidity. Finishes chocolaty firm and inky long. Received 100 points from James Suckling.

Primary and lush with creamy richness, ripe dark fruits, mocha oak and sappy long but integrated tannins. (JR)

Brooding, intense, concentrated, complex and powerful with an impressive velvety softness. (FW)

PENFOLDS g4 2002/2004/ 2008/2016 ««««« Drink 2025 to 2060+.

Four exceptional Grange vintages all connected to each other through combined oak maturation 2002, 2004, 2008 and 2016. A unique experience of layered complexity and richness. Comprising 100 percent Grange DNA, Penfolds g4 has been expertly blended to fully animate and integrate the strengths of each Grange vintage. Peter Gago s limited release multi-vintage Grange takes Max Schubert s multi-regional masterpiece, where the sum is greater than the whole, to a new imaginative level.

Deep crimson. Intense elderberry, blackberry, ginger and roasted walnut/ chestnut/vanilla mocha aromas. Richly concentrated and expansive with dense blackberry, black cherry and bramble flavours, ginger, vanilla and grilled nut complexity and fresh-integrated acidity. Finishes firm and solid with liquorice and dark chocolate notes. Fresh and juicy with all the elements still unsprung, despite the near two-decade maturation period of the oldest vintage. This is Penfolds Grange through the prism of a time machine. Will last and last. Received 100 points from James Suckling and London s World of Fine Wine magazine.

A rosebud with many petals. Intense, focussed and richly layered with very refined granular tannins and integrated new oak. Elemental and unknitted but should come together with further age. (NB)

Softer and silkier than g3, reflecting the relative maturity of its components. (NR)
