Grant Burge Fifth Gen Cabernet Merlot

Grant Burge Fifth Gen CabM offers rich flavours of dark berries, plums, and baked red fruits with sweet barrel spices and hints of violet. The palate is full-bodied with a smooth texture, balancing the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the roundness of Merlot. The finish is warming and lingering, with persistent fruit and gentle spice notes.

Grant Burge Fifth Gen CabM is produced in the Barossa Valley, one of Australia's most renowned wine regions. The wine is crafted by Grant Burge, a fifth-generation Barossa vigneron whose family has been making wine in the region for generations. Grant Burge Wines is known for capturing the unique character and quality of Barossa Valley fruit in every bottle.

Grant Burge Fifth Gen CabM pairs beautifully with red meats such as grilled steak, lamb chops, or braised beef. It also complements mature cheeses like aged cheddar or Gouda, as well as hearty pasta dishes with rich tomato or meat-based sauces. The wine's full body and fruit-forward character make it versatile for a range of savoury, robust dishes.

This Cabernet Merlot blend complements dishes with bold, savoury flavours such as rosemary-crusted lamb, beef Wellington, or mushroom risotto. Its structure and fruit profile also work well with charcuterie boards featuring cured meats and rich pâtés. The wine's smooth texture and spice notes make it a great match for barbecued or grilled meats.

Serve Grant Burge Fifth Gen CabM at room temperature, ideally between 16–18°C, to allow the full range of aromas and flavours to express themselves. Use a standard red wine glass with a generous bowl to help the wine breathe and release its dark fruit and spice characteristics. Decanting is not essential but can enhance the experience if you have time.
