Very deep, dark, concentrated colour, opaque; there’s concentrated black fruits, spice and licorice aromas and generous char oak skilfully entwined. The wine is full-bodied and rich, deep and powerful and promises to cellar superbly.

95 Points by Wine Pilot in the Ray Jordan on 12/1/2024
This is pure Barossa shiraz. Colour is dense and dark with faint crimson hues. Earthy plum aromas with a little liquorice and brick dust. Plenty of weight on the palate which is supported with well managed oak. Has a slightly grainy texture providing a nice mouthfeel.

Description

About Grant Burge

The Burge family planted their roots in the Barossa Valley in the 1800s inspiring five generations of devoted vignerons. After years of working on the family’s vineyard, Meshach Burge, the eldest son, decided it was time to branch out from the family business, away from viticulture and into the world of agriculture.

Meshach could not shake his innate love of grape growing, wine and winemaking. In 1865 he installed fermenting tanks in one of his sheds, intending to create wines that he could share with his friends and family. Out of his generosity came what is today the Grant Burge brand.

CRAIG STANSBOROUGH, WINEMAKER
Born in Gawler, on the edge of the Barossa Valley, Craig grew up with the wine industry around him. He started as a cellar hand with B Seppelt & Son in 1983, firstly at Chateau Tanunda and then later at Seppeltsfield. He lives on a property in Williamstown and tends a small vineyard.

Craig joined Grant Burge Wines in 1993 as Cellar Manager and was soon promoted to Assistant Winemaker in 1994, Winemaker in 1995 and Senior Winemaker in 1997, with his meteoric rise within the company being due to his enormous talents, leadership, inquisitive mind, and his unrelenting passion for winemaking
