99 points Peter Moser (Falstaff): "Dark ruby, with purple reflections, and a softer colour on the rim. An intense bouquet, black berry-fruit notes with underpinnings of mint, and a floral touch. On the palate, silky and round, and juicy, with fine red cherries. Structured, with integrated tannins, and minerality. Persistent, showing great length, with a chocolatey finish, and a strong ageing potential, 100. (1/1/18)"

98+ points Lisa Perrotti-Brown (Wine Advocate): "Deep garnet with a touch of brick, the 2002 Grange is locked in a time capsule, like many of the 2002s, yielding a very youthful nose of red currants and red cherries, kirsch and violets with some lovely exotic spices in the background. Quite perfumed and pretty in terms of fruit expression in the mouth, the structure is rock solid, with a lively backbone cutting through the muscular fruit and great purity to the finish. If you're looking for that real "Grange" experience, best to keep cellaring it another 5-10+ years. Drink: 2021-2045. (Oct 2016)"

97 points James Halliday (Wine Companion): "As hoped and expected; beautiful colour; a wonderful bouquet, with black fruits of various kinds the engine, oak in tow. Impeccable texture and balance in the mouth; again, a wonderful array of seamless blackberry, licorice and high-quality oak; destined to become recognised as one of the great Granges. Alcohol 14.5%. Drink by 2050. (7/11/21)"
