Immediately understood, immediately recognised. Grange is crafted utilising fully-ripe, intensely-flavoured and structured shiraz grapes. The result is a unique style that is recognised as one of the most consistent of the world’s great wines. The 2021 release is an aromatic quilt - grated dark chocolate, pan juices, soy and spice on the nose. Dark fruits, sleek tannins and chocolate oak is expansive across the palate. A wine that will comfortably cellar for three decades.

Perfect to add to spag bog
Even better in spag bol
Amazingly low price.
Personally I think Grange is drastically over priced and rides the coat tails of its branding. It is, after all, just a bottle of red wine. But if you're in the market then $743 is excellent. Just don't buy it as an investment. After auction fees and inflation are taken into account you won't make any money on it. I see 20 year old pristine condition Granges being sold for an effective loss regularly.
Hi Cluster, where do you see this? I have been interested in picking up a cellared bottle but unsure where to go.
Thanks in advance.
oddbins, langtons, etc
SOME people drink this to demonstrated that they have money, lol.
An amazing low price for a 98 point Shiraz is about $60 to $80. This is a wonderful.Gago gimmick and the Grey Goose of wine.
Someone will point out its rated 100 points by some but tell me in the next sentence who actually buys it on their ratings.
Would happily drink 3 or 4 Yeoman or Velvet glove before this.
Princes who negged my comment
depends whose 98 points, not a lot of haliday 98 point at that price point $60-$80 on shelves as haliday 98 point at $70 sell out , and obscure wine revuer ratings are sometime not reflective. for australian wine grange is expensive, hit burgundy, boudreaux for top end wines and grange isn’t that expensive, but it is expensive compared to what else we have access to in australia, especially if you buy in good vintage and skip bad ones.
If you want an excellent red, at a more affordable price: Henschke Keyneton Euphonium. I buy a case every 2 years.

Interesting that several stores have this cheaper than Dan Murphy..
Great wine to drink and not feel guilty opening on a weekday, cant beat it in the price range
Barry O'Farrell approves this deal…. Wait no he can't remember it
Made in China?
how you even make a stupid comment like this
Still zero relevance.
Where in that link does it say Grange is made in China?? Grange is made solely from grapes produced in SA
Bought 10, thanks OP
$15 cooking wine OR this?
it’s better than $15 cooking wine but not per dollar better than some $60-$120 wines. cheap european is good for cooking, australian wines are a different style to euro in fruit and tannin so don’t work as well for euro recipes, cheap $15 chianti works better in cooking e.g prawn pasta than $15 barossa, but why open 2 bottles if you can make do with 1.
If I were to spend this much on a single bottle of wine, I probably wouldn't wait for a 'deal' ;)
that’s right, the 2018 grange sold quick as it was 100 points and got global write ups as one of the greatest wines in the world for the vintage by overseas magazines, like 1990 grange did, the 2021 didn’t get those write ups so less demand from overseas, hence the discounted price. penfolds make great wines and are very much a blender now so making volume isn’t a problem for them, selling the volume at their pricing is. 2021 was a good vintage in australia but without global writeups overseas they buy other things e.g 2021 barolo was a top vintage and some have sold out though 2020 and 2022 still on shelf. at $120+ price points you consider vintage
Good price if still expensive but usually an incredibly well made wine. The main issue I have is with Grange frequently being drunk way too young - they need at least 20 years of age. Trying very hard not to sound too much like a *__ker (and I suspect failing terribly) but to enjoy it you need to a) forget how much it cost and b) have experience tasting wines and c) drink a bottle that has been cellared well for many years. There are a few other factors such as the right glass, proper decanting (*not* aeration), the right temperature etc etc. I fully understand people who taste a current bottle of Grange for the first time and go 'meh' - keep in mind that the wine judges are tasting the wine and giving it a score less on how it actually drinks now, but more on how they believe it will taste years from now when at its peak.
I have been fortunate enough to have tasted a number of bottles of Grange and can testify that - under the right conditions - it is very special. I would however never buy a bottle of the current vintage any more than I would buy a bottle of Chateau Margaux or Latour or Petrus etc. Too hard to justify. If I wanted to celebrate an incredibly special event then I might try to get a bottle that has been cellared properly, although realistically I'd probably fork out for a bottle of Krug.
If you want to buy a bottle to give to someone who's just had a kid, so they can open it on their 21st…. I'd suggest unless you or they have a proper cellar, buy some shares instead. When they hit 21 they can buy a bottle with age to drink and I suspect will have money left over.
Basically - buy this if you want to keep it properly for a couple of decades or if you collect the vintages like Pokémon cards. If you want to buy something to enjoy now or in the next few years, unless you have money to burn look elsewhere as you'll be wasting your money. Heck, I shared a '99 Bin 389 (aka the "Baby Grange") last night and you can get one of those for around the $200 mark and I'm certain I enjoyed that more than I would have a current Grange.
As an aside, registration for the Penfold's recorking clinics are still open for Brisbane & Adelaide. Excellent events if you can dig up an older Penfold's red as your ticket in to then taste their current range of wines.
One bottle, great price.
