Grant Burge Wines Pty Ltd
Grant Burge is a fifth-generation Barossa vigneron and winemaker. 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. With help from his sons Meshach and Henry, John’s farm flourished with wheat, sheep and viticulture. His eldest son Meshach continued the farming tradition and was a prominent community leader. He married Emma in the early 1900s and they had eight children. First-born Percival established the Wilsford Winery in 1916, beginning the Burge winemaking tradition. Percival had two sons, Noel and Colin, and Colin and his wife Nancy had one son, Grant. Following in the footsteps of his father and forefathers before him, Grant now carries the winemaking tradition Read more »

Grant Burge Tawny Port 10 Year 1975
Snoothrank:
I really like this port! Tasted it at Southern Lattitudes wine shop in Carmel, Ca. It was brought out to me by one of the owners, to whom I informed that I could not find an Aussie wine I liked. Well, well, well. LOVED IT! This is a Tawny port, oak matured. To me, I tasted rich toasted hazelnuts, butterscotch, and more that I am unable to ... Read More

Grant Burge Sparkling Shiraz Cabernet Barossa Eden Coonawarra NV
Snoothrank:
The Best Sparkling Red I have ever had. I have fallen in love with this one -- a smooth, sparkling red that is literally topped off by sweetness of the added port that reportedly is used to just top off the bottle - unique in all ways and best enjoyed right at the beautiful tasting room in the center of the Barossa's best wineries -- the questi...
