Grant Burge Ink Barossa Shiraz 750ml

Grant Burge Ink Barossa Shiraz delivers a ripe, voluptuous palate with juicy plum, prune and bottled cherry fruit, balanced by a sprinkle of pepper and well-integrated nutty oak. The wine oozes mocha, blackberry, cassis, mint and damp earth, supported by fine velvet tannins and a soft, round texture. It finishes clean and fresh with lingering pepper notes and warming length.

This wine is produced by Grant Burge in the Barossa Valley, Australia's most iconic Shiraz region. The Burge family have been winegrowers in the Barossa for five generations dating back to 1865, bringing deep regional knowledge and heritage to every vintage. The wine sits at 14.5% ABV and showcases authentic Barossa terroir and character.

Grant Burge Ink Barossa Shiraz pairs beautifully with rich beef dishes and venison, thanks to its bold fruit and structured tannins. It also complements Greek mezze and grilled octopus, or simple pasta with tomato and basil. The wine's pepper notes and juicy texture make it versatile across Mediterranean and hearty meat-based cuisines.

This full-bodied Shiraz works wonderfully with chargrilled beef, lamb shoulder, beef cheek ragu, or peppercorn-crusted steak. The wine's cassis and mocha notes also pair well with slow-cooked beef short ribs or rich tomato-based pasta dishes. For something lighter, try it with roasted vegetables and herb-crusted lamb.

Serve Grant Burge Ink Barossa Shiraz at 16-18°C to allow the bold aromatics and fruit flavours to fully express themselves. Use a large red wine glass to give the wine room to breathe and develop. Decanting is not essential but can help soften the tannins and open up the pepper and mocha notes if serving immediately after opening.
