Description

"This wine represents terrific value, drawing praise from every judge on the Cuisine panel.  It has lovely intensity and a fascinating flavour profile with exotic spices such as turmeric and allspice in the mix, along with tamarillo and deep blue fruits. The tannins are long and even. A balanced, very satisfying drop" Cuisine magazine, Australian Shiraz Tasting, Issue #189, June 2018

Deep dark purple in colour, this wine instantly impresses with aromas of raspberry and blackberry, complemented by spice, subtle vanilla and coffee bean. Full bodied wine where the red fruits in the mid palate are balanced with integrated fine long tannins and hints of sweetness and spice from the oak. The soft integrated tannin structure gives the wine a real elegance and mid palate structure. The multi-layered depth of flavours and long lingering finish make this an impressive wine.

Grant Burge is a 5th generation Barossa vigneron. The history of the Burge family and their long association with winemaking in the region can be traced back to March 1855, when noted tailor John Burge immigrated to the Barossa with his wife Eliza and their two sons, Meshach and Henry.

Sourced from a variety of premium vineyards, predominantly in the Barossa Valley consistently delivers exceptional flavour and interest. The fruit was crushed and de-stemmed prior to being fermented in stainless steel tanks. After it underwent malolactic fermentation, the wine was matured in a combination of American and French oak for a period of 14 months.
