Another powerful Grant Burge name for a powerful wine that I have no doubt its namesake Babylonian ruler would have approved highly of.
Ripe, rich fruit--blackberry, currant and raspberry hints, fruitcake spices, coffee, chocolate and minty aromas. Superbly smooth on the palate with bright fruit and acidity, pepper and sweet spices, weighty on the tongue with a silky coffee finish.
Very impressive!

Unless you've been hiding out under an old world rock you've likely heard of "The Holy Trinity". You don't need to understand the Trinity's religious significance--"The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit" to enjoy the wine either. At the end of the day it's a great name for a great wine that combines the trinity of Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvedre.
Concentrated aromas and flavours--intense berry and dark cherry aromas, coffee, dark floral, spice and mint chocolate. Layered flavours, smooth spiced chocolate, dried fruit and coffee liquer that clings to the palate and lingers seductively on the tongue.
'The Holy Trinity' is made from combined Barossa vines that are 50-110+ years old. 39% Grenache, 36% Shiraz and 25% Mourvedre

Fifth generation Barossan, Grant Burge and his family are an integral part of the famous South Australian valley - his ancestors arrived in there in the mid-1800s. The Holy Trinity Vineyard sits on the Barossa Valley floor, at the quiet junction of Holy Trinity Corner and the wine is made from a trio of varieties - Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvedre.
It is warm and rich on the nose - well-integrated notes of chocolate mocha, dark berries, cherry, toffee, exotic spice and a lifting mintiness. The palate follows suit - potent flavours of dark fruit and chocolate are woven with spice and toffee. It has wonderful structure and balance with a long finish trailing hints of white pepper. Superfine, ripe tannins linger, but this wine is drinking very nicely now.

Intense black fruit aromas with earth, mint chocolate and meaty hints. On the palate the Burge Shiraz is smooth, with serious, deep layered flavours, juicy blackberry, white pepper, toasted oak and mixed spices.

Fresh! With mixed red berries, creme de cassis, mint, cocoa and saddle leather aromas follwed up with layered flavours of juicy red fruit, herbs, warm spices and sweet vanilla oak.
An elegant Cabernet with a smooth mouth-feel and fine grained tannins on the finish. Delicious!
