Penfolds Bin 95 Grange Shiraz 1982 (Signed By Max Schubert)

Product Description:
The Penfolds Bin 95 Grange Shiraz 1982 is a historic and highly collectible release from Australia’s most celebrated wine label, further elevated by the signature of legendary winemaker Max Schubert. Widely regarded as the architect of modern Australian fine wine, Schubert created Grange to rival the great wines of Bordeaux while showcasing the unique power and longevity of Australian Shiraz. The 1982 vintage represents a classic era of Grange production, combining immense concentration, mature complexity and remarkable structural integrity after decades in bottle. Produced predominantly from Shiraz with a small portion of Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine was matured in American oak hogsheads in the traditional Grange style that defines its unmistakable character.

Now fully mature, the 1982 Grange displays extraordinary depth and tertiary complexity while retaining the richness and intensity that have long defined the wine. Aromas of dark chocolate, espresso, leather, dried plum, roasted walnut and spice unfold with remarkable persistence and elegance. The palate is dense yet harmonious, carrying layers of black fruit, mocha, earth, cedar and savoury mineral notes framed by resolved tannins and lingering acidity. Despite its age, the wine continues to reveal freshness and vitality beneath its evolved profile. The finish is exceptionally long, textured and deeply savoury, echoing the enduring pedigree of Grange across generations. Bottles signed by Max Schubert are especially prized by collectors due to their rarity and direct connection to one of the most influential figures in Australian wine history. This is not merely a wine, but a significant piece of Australian vinous heritage.
