Grant Burge MSJ Reserve Cabernet Shiraz Blend 1998
$65.00
Slightly old-fashioned Barossa blend, with an earthy, meaty aroma of sweet cassis, plums and mulberries, suggestions of pepper and spice, with a healthy dollop of new chocolate and vanilla oak. Smooth and cedary, with a pleasingly long palate of intense berry fruit and earthy complexity supported by rather a firm and rod-like spine of drying tannins.

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.
