Grant Burge Nebu Cabernet Shiraz 2021 is a powerhouse Barossa icon – concentrated, deeply coloured and built in that plush yet structured style that sits alongside Meshach and Shadrach at the top of the tree. It marries Cabernet drive with Shiraz generosity, giving a wine that’s intense but feels beautifully composed rather than overdone.

The palate is packed with black fruit and earthy plum, layers of crème de cassis, dark berry, chocolate and warm spice, all wrapped in fine, powdery, almost sedimentary tannins. There’s an effortless ease to the way it flows – rich and mouth‑filling yet beautifully balanced, with sapid acidity and a long, cassis‑laden finish that clearly marks it out for long‑term cellaring.

This Grant Burge Nebu Cabernet Shiraz 2021 is tailor‑made for rich, slow‑cooked meats – think beef short rib, lamb shoulder, venison or game, and it will also shine with hard, aged cheeses on a big night in. Given the structure and concentration, it’s best with a long decant if you’re opening it young, or tucked away in a cool cellar for 10+ years to really show its class.​
