Grant Burge Summers Chardonnay 2006

A smoky, toasty and rather brassy young chardonnay whose candied flavours of melon, peach and figs reveals undertones of toasty, buttery and nutty oak. Forward and quite viscous, its juicy, almost syrupy palate thins out towards a drying and oaky, toffee-like finish.

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.
