|
|
| If there is a wine expert out there... I would like to buy a bottle of Penfolds Grange, as a very special gift to a very special person. I don't drink wine, though, so I have tried to read about this wine, but it's not the same, is it? If somebody knows about it, which vintage have you tried and you would reccommend, within a budget of about £250-300? Does anybody know of a good shop in London or more probably online where to buy it? ThanksP.S. Please, only answers from people who know what they are talking about, no links to Wikipedia etc (as I have already done this myself) |

| Get the 1990 if you can find/afford it:"Wine Spectator magazine named the 1990 vintage Grange 'The Best Red Wine in the World'. This accolade has sent the price of both the '90 and subsequent vintage releases soaring at auction."Other good years are 2001 and 2004.Prices in the US running in the $200-300 range (or 400 - 600 lbs) |

| Consistently Australia's best Red Wine, this is an unforgettable experience and ranks with top reds from around the World. Try this for London stockist fine_wine@frw.co.uk or alternatively Berry Bros. & Rudd |
