Offered here is an exceptionally rare and highly regarded bottle of Penfolds Grange Hermitage Bin 95 1976 — the famous “25th Commemorative Release” of one of Australia’s most iconic wines. The 1976 vintage is considered one of the great historic Grange vintages and was awarded 100 points by Robert Parker. Produced under the direction of legendary Penfolds winemaker Max Schubert, this wine played a major role in establishing Grange internationally as one of the world’s most age-worthy and prestigious Shiraz wines. The 1976 release was also among the first Australian premium wines to reach what was then considered an extraordinary price level upon release. The wine is composed predominantly of Shiraz with a small proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon and was traditionally matured in small American oak barrels. Over the decades, tasting notes have described it as exceptionally concentrated, complex and long-lived, with aromas of dark berries, plum, chocolate, leather, spice and cedarwood.
