Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale. Only the 7th Grange to be made from 100% shiraz (on its 70th anniversary). (other 100% vintages were 1951, 1952, 1963, 1999, 2000 and 2011). Intense, youthful shiraz with layers of dark berry, smoky oak, savoury, baked earth, exotic spices, cedar, tobacco and cacao powder plus much more. It has an impeccable balance of alcohol sweetness, with assertive tannins and fruit versus savoury characters. This wine has the X-factor. It promises to age magnificently.
