Grant Burge Abednego Red Rhone Blend 2002
$60.00
Assertive and heady grenache-driven aromas of spicy plumcake, cloves, cinnamon and sweet oak precede a juicy, slightly tarry palate whose plump expression of dark, spicy fruit is framed by slightly blocky tannins and underpinned by suggestions of mint and menthol. Finishes almost savoury, with a lingering core of mineral-backed fruit. Lacks real definition and distinction.

Grant Burge
Since 2015 the Grant Burge label has been part of the Accolade Wines stable. A well-known Barossa brand with a collection of well-known reds headed by the Meshach Shiraz, it has become rather more expensive over recent years during which tie it has struggled to maintain consistency and quality.
