2018 Grant Burge Meshach Shiraz

Intense dark crimson with violet hues. A strong and compelling bouquet of black pepper, sage, plum, coffee and mocha. Hints of tree bark, pencil shavings and dark chocolate highlight the complexity of this wine. A wine worth of its Langton's 'Outstanding' classification. This is a bright, vibrant, powerful yet elegant wine, with a strength that is reflective of the old vine blocks it comes from. Wonderfully balanced, with dark chocolate and plum on the mid palate with hints of aniseed and cinnamon on the end. A long, elegant finish with an acidity line that will ensure this wine will age gracefully.

‘The 2018 Meshach is a wine of incredible power and weight, balanced with exceptional class and elegance. The 2018 release marks the 30th Anniversary of this iconic wine.' Craig Stansborough, Chief Winemaker. 100% hand harvested. The wine was fermented in a combination of stainless steel and concrete open fermenters using heading boards, allowing optimal fruit extraction. The wine was then aged in a combination of new and old French Oak, ranging in size from 300 to 2500 litre Foudres for 18 months
