I pulled this Bin 404 out of the cellar last week. I looked on all websites NOT finding anything at all about the Bin 404,
I opened it and tasted it. As you would expect, it was past its best; however, with enough suppression, it still tasted of wine, not of vinegar.
Today I stumbled on an AI wine search site and Bugger me Dead!!
A “hidden” Grange vintage: In the 1950s, after being ordered to cease Grange production, winemaker Max Schubert made three vintages in secret. These were released commercially years later, and bottles were marked with different bin numbers. For example, the 1959 Grange was also released under Bin 46 (and Bins 49 and 95). While no Bin 404 is documented, it could be an even rarer, unrecorded experimental lot.
Now the Rot has really set in.
