2001 Grange

2001 Penfolds Grange;
Deep ruby, pink rim. Liquorice, vanilla, spicy notes, pepper, camphor, raspberries and blackberries. Very fresh acidity, texture like velvet, very elegant, ripe tannins, the only thing negative, this my first Grange where I actually feel warm alcohol, and unfortunatelly, that ruins it a bit, fantastic otherwise. 90 (barely)
