🏰 The 1997 Penfolds Grange is 【an iconic Australian Shiraz, celebrated as one of the world's great wines and a classic Grange vintage, albeit slightly softer than its predecessor.】 Despite a challenging growing season, it delivers a gorgeously sweet nose of blackberry liqueur, cherries, and mocha, with an opulently-textured palate. 🍴 This powerful and complex Shiraz demands equally robust food pairings, such as a prime rib roast, beef Wellington, or slow-braised ox cheek. It also pairs exceptionally well with aged hard cheeses. 🥂 A phenomenal wine for milestone celebrations, serious collectors, or as a long-term investment, the 1997 Grange is entering its early drinking window and can age gracefully for decades.
