Aldi Liquor is now selling Australia’s most famous and iconic wine, Penfolds Grange on line.
A bottle of the 2008 vintage, rated by Parker at 100/100, will set you back a lazy $649, or $7788 the dozen.
The Aldi tasting notes read:
“An immediate and powerful lift of cola/soy/hoisin/red licorice, propelled by tea-smoke and ferric influences. A muscular push of dark licorice and malt, with a self-saucing chocolate pudding richness and blackberry.”
With those characters it sounds like a bottle might go well with dinner at a Chinese restaurant.
