Re: 2010 Penfolds Grange (and other 2014 releases)
Grange is down to $644. I guess it will bounce back once the stock dries up.

Re: 2010 Penfolds Grange (and other 2014 releases)
Some places have pre-release 2010 Grange at ~ $655 mark. All reports are that it is going to rival the 76 grange. I'm not sure what 'all reports' means, other than that is what my broker mentioned to me. And he isn't one to BS me; never has and never would. It would cost him to much commission. I've...

Re: 2014 Penfolds Re-Corking Clinic
I really enjoyed it.
Now I've got 2 years to drink what I've got and restock with some more that need recorking.

Re: Best Grange '72 to '09
They are all good, so you won't go wrong.
My vote would be for 76. Sounds like he knows how to look after this wines, so when you have an option to try a 76, you take it. Anything 80's and onwards, you can find readily available at auction at reasonable prices.

Re: New Penfolds release dates
I'll probably end up with a 2010 Grange, if the St Henri is anything to go by.
The expense is relative, so I'm not worried about the prices, more so the contents.

Re: New Penfolds release dates
Makes sense to have most of the financial year to sell the Icon and Luxury Collection instead of jamming it into the last quarter. They might get a few more sales through Christmas as well.

Re: Penfolds Re-corking Clinics 2014 - Bookings now open
Fantastic. I just registered 10 bottles of grange.
Although I might end up drinking one of them before August. What happens if I pick up a bottle between now and clinic date that I would like to add?
Thanks

Re: 2010 St Henri
Yeah, I'm up for a swap meet, screw cap for cork.
Lock in a BYO restaurant and I'll pop a screw cap and share a glass in appreciation.

Re: 2010 St Henri
I picked up a case on Friday from DM. Screwcaps FTL... I'll get another case when cork cases come in. Yeah, screw caps suck. Especially like last night when we had a pinot tasting, and one of the marquee wines that our money went to was corked. Totally worth it for the.... zero additional benefits ...

Re: 2010 St Henri
I've got a couple bottles in my cellar, I might send one to Peter since the poor guy missed out. I collect, drink and gift grange. It's like fashion for men. I tell my colleagues that I had a Chris ringland and they wouldn't have a clue. I tell them I polished off an 84 grange and they think I'm a g...

Re: Penfold's wine clinic twice?
You can only go through a clinic once. As long as you've looked after it, you should be fine.
I've got a 76 grange that I'm keen to run through a clinic. I don't think I'll go through this years clinic, as I don't want 09 grange in there with the 76. If they could top it up with 08, then I'd go.
