{"product_id":"penfolds-grange-1988","title":"Penfolds Grange 1988","description":"Penfolds Grange 1988 is a full-bodied Shiraz blend from South Australia. Since its first vintage in 1951, Grange has become the most collectible Australian wine on the market. Typically blended with a small proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon, Grange is renowned for richness, its aromatics and its extraordinary longevity. Penfolds has been in operation at the Magill Estate near Adelaide since 1844 and has become a sine qua non of Australian wine. While it boasts a vast portfolio wines, the pinnacle of its output is Grange, which is arguably the most iconic wine of any New World wine region. On the 1988. \"A blend of 94% Shiraz and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, this was considered to be an uncharacteristically soft, fruity Grange.` Everyone at the tasting agreed with those comments. This wine shows a syrupy creme de cassis, earthy note, some pepper, and caramel. It is somewhat soft and accessible for such a relatively young Grange, but there is plenty of structure and tannin in the finish. It is certainly perfumed and more evolved than some of its siblings that are actually older, chronologically speaking. This wine has sweet, full-bodied, plum, cherry, and cassis flavours, with some distinct truffle and asphalt notes.\" Robert Parker, 2002","brand":"Penfolds","offers":[{"title":"Duty Paid","offer_id":62428027715914,"sku":"HED0258","price":525.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/7696\/2634\/files\/HED0258.jpg?v=1781912780","url":"https:\/\/hedonism.co.uk\/products\/penfolds-grange-1988","provider":"Hedonism Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
