The story of Grant Burge is one of the past, the present, and the future. Planting their roots in the Barossa Valley in 1865, the Burges began as a family of devoted vignerons. For five generations, they spent their days toiling on the land, understanding the soil, and from it, growing grapes that would become the premium wines of today. At Grant Burge Wines, they challenged themselves to come up with the most vibrant and impactful wines possible. Grant Burge McLaren Vale Ink is an intense and opulent wine, from the heart of McLaren Vale, with a colour so dark it’s almost ink.

Winter rainfalls were slightly below average for McLaren Vale while spring and Summer continued to be dry. Heat spikes in January preceded a warm and dry harvest period however temperatures rarely exceed the low 30s. Diligent vineyard management and strong vine architecture allowed the fruit to achieve desirable sugar and flavour levels with very low disease pressure.

Food Pairing: Blue cheese and bacon beef burger.

Alc: 14.5%
