Meshach William Burge (1843-1942) was Grant's great grandfather and and a central figure in establishing the Burge family's winemaking tradition . He was 11 when his family moved from Hillcot, in Wiltshire, England, to the Barossa Valley and established what has growin into a thriving viticultural, what and sheep property near Lyndoch.

In tribute, Grant has selected his finest Shiraz to bear his name and be his flagship wine. Since the first vintage in 1988, Meshach has won several of Australia's top trophies and many medals. It is generally regarded as one of the country's best dry reds.

Expert Reviews

“A restrained, elegant Meshach with elegance and poise, and without the portiness of earlier vintages. Powerful youthful aromas of violets, spicy plums and cassis are supported by creamy vanilla and dark chocolate oak with hints of mocha, cedar and fennel. Fleshy but also firm, round, supple and balanced. Drink 2006. ” Jeremy Oliver, OnWine Report, Oct — Nov, 1999

Winery Tasting Notes

Notes Image

The fruit was handpicked from 80 year old vines at a ripened Baume of 14°, from my Filsell Vineyard in between Lyndock and Williamstown.

Once picked, the grapes were crushed into 8 tonne stainless steel fermenters. Fermentation took 7 days before the Baume reached 2.5°-3.0°, and then free run juice was drained off the remaining skins to be pressed. The fermenting juice was then transferred to American Oak hogsheads to complete fermentation to dryness.

After racking and various blendings, the wine was matured in American oak for a period of 24-28 months before filtering and bottling. Meshach was then matured in bottle for another two and a half years before release.

Winery Profile

Grant Burge is a fifth-generation Barossa Vigneron. Throughout his career, Grant has been one of the most respected and innovative forces in the Australian wine industry. The history of the Burge family and their long association with winemaking in the region can be traced back to March 1855, when noted tailor John Burge immigrated to the Barossa from Hillcot, near Pewsey in Wiltshire, England with his wife Eliza and their two sons.

Grant Burge Wines was formed in 1988 by Grant and his wife Helen, and is located in the heart of the Barossa Valley on the banks of Jacobs Creek and is still proudly family owned.

The fruit for this Iconic Shiraz is carefully handpicked from the Filsell Vineyard, where the vines are nearing 100 years old. Smaller parcels are also sourced from even older premium vines in the Barossa to add further complexities to the wine.

Meshach is a highly, concentrated, generous Barossa style with a ripe, dense palate packed with fruit, pronounced tannins and seasoned by American oak. Maturation programme is identical to Grange. Great potential for longevity.

Provenance; “Place of origin; derivation”

  • The history of the ownership of an object, especially when documented or authenticated. Used for Artworks, Antiques, and Wine.
  • The records or documents authenticating such an object or the history of its ownership.

Whenever you buy wine there is an inherent risk, as wine is a perishable good regardless of whether it is sealed under cork or screwcap. At GraysOnline we minimise the risk to you by providing as much information as possible regarding the provenance of the wine we sell.

We take the time to individually inspect each bottle and photograph it so you know exactly what you are buying. All Private Cellar wine stored at GraysOnline is kept in a temperature controlled wine storage area. Any wine that doesn’t meet our quality standards will not be sold.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Wines displaying a 5 star designation are recognised as being of proven quality provenance, our team has verified that the wine has been stored correctly from original purchase straight from the winery, documentation, where possible, has been sighted and cellaring conditions have been inspected. This wine generally comes from only the best and most respected of wine collectors in Australia.

★ ★ ★ ★

Wines displaying a 4 star designation have been cellared correctly as verified by the current owners. In general these wines have been purchased from retailers or traders and stored in cellared conditions from original purchase.

★ ★ ★

Wines displaying a 3 star designation are in good condition when we inspect and we are able to confirm some cellaring conditions but we are unable to verify all ownership and storage conditions of their history.

A wine displaying no stars doesn’t mean that there is a problem with the wine, it simply means that we have been unable to verify provenance, however a quality image is always available for the purchaser to make their own purchasing decisions.

Private Cellar wine is wine which has been stored for aging purposes in a Private Cellar.

Storing the wine and allowing it to age has the potential to improve the quality of the wine. While wine is perishable and capable of deteriorating, storing the wine can alter the aroma, colour, mouthfeel and taste of the wine in a way that may be more pleasing to the taster.
