Grant Burge Meshach Shiraz 1996

Complete, confident and brooding shiraz whose deep, dark spicy fruits and violet aromas are given de luxe treatment with smoky ground coffee oak. Big, warm and ripe, very long and astringent, needs time to settle. Burge is concerned he might have slightly over-done the toasty oak, but in time you won’t notice.

Winery

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.
