First produced by Max Schubert in 1951, Penfolds Grange is an iconic wine and is one of the most remarkably consistent fine wines produced in Australia. Made by former winemaker, John Duval, the 1987 is full-bodied, rich and flavoursome, with typically strong concentration of fruit and seamless balance throughout. This blend of 90% Shiraz and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon is now at its peak and would pair beautifully with mature cheeses.
