Attributes

"A wine that seems to get better every time I have it, the 1978 Grange, a blend of 90% Shiraz and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, has turned out to be a blockbuster wine with extraordinary intensity, a voluptuous palate, notes of camphor, coffee, jammy black fruits, leather, and creme de cassis. As the wine sits in the glass, pepper and melted asphalt make an appearance. Very unctuously textured, thick, and chewy, this wine is soft, with a very succulent style. Its color is showing just a touch of amber as this wine approaches its plateau of maturity. 93 Points/Drink 2002-2022" - Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

"Relatively pale. Sweet, discreet. Lively. Very gorgeous and round with quite a bit of tannin still. Long and flattering. Admirably complete. 18.5 Points/Drink 1998-2020" - Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com
