Tasting Notes | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
A substantial 11% of the 1994 Grange is Cabernet Sauvignon, and it's most clearly apparent on the elegant, leafy, floral nose. On the palate, it's more clearly Grange and Shiraz-like, with plenty of weight and richness along with flavors of dried fruit, roasted meat and mocha, but there's also a sense that it's starting to lighten and become approachable/mature. Drink now or hold up to another 10 years or so. Score: 94 Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2018-2030 04 October 2018 |

89% Shiraz, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon. Kalimna Vineyard (Barossa Valley), Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Coonawarra blend. Very dark crimson. Tarry and much more suppressed on the nose than, say, the 1991 even though it is three years younger. Still very taut and chewily textured. Wait! Score: 17 - 18 Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com Maturity: 2014-2034 24 June 2009 |

A magnificent edifice of a wine, elegant and refined in structure but dripping with flavor--a virtual cascade of plum, black cherry, blackberry, anise, pepper and exotic spices that lingers on the finish; this just doesn't quit. Best after 2002. Score: 96 Winespectator.com, Wine Spectator Maturity: 2002+ 30 November 1999 |
