Let's Settle the Score
Penfold’s Grange vs Henschke Hill of Grace
1986, 1990, 1991, 1994 and 1998 vintages

 
"With good wine comes good debate. In vino veritas and all that. But we want to settle the score once and for all - which is superior, Henschke Hill of Grace or Penfold’s Grange?"

 

Penfold’s Grange has dominated and led fine wine production in Australia for decades, shaping international perception of our winemaking style and acquiring unmatched status. Yet, some argue that Henschke’s Hill of Grace is a more subtle wine, representative of it’s family-led winemaking direction and single vineyard fruit, and hence superior.

 

At this passionate dinner you will be exposed to 5 outstanding vintages of each wine, and encouraged to take a stand for what you judge to be the superior wine. Matched with classic wine-friendly food by Executive Chef Justin Wise, over 5 courses you will indulge in the equivalent of a bottle of wine from the 10 best examples of the South Australian style. We look forward to sharing a vinous debate with you.

 

$695 per person for 5 course menu matched to 5 vintages of each wine.
