The 1997 Grange, a masterful blend of 96% Shiraz and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon, emerges as a timeless classic, albeit with a touch of approachability compared to the more reserved 1996 vintage. This opulent, deep purple-hued wine beckons with an enchanting bouquet featuring luscious notes of blackberry liqueur, cherries, camphor, chocolate, plums, and mocha. Its texture is a tapestry of opulence, a harmoniously layered and irresistibly soft revelation, encapsulating the quintessential Grange character in a seamless, seductive manner. This is an exceptional Grange that proudly stands shoulder to shoulder with its highly acclaimed 1996 counterpart.
