Deep, yet bright, purple in colour with a deep, dark red hue. On the nose, raspberry and blackberry fruit is surrounded by aromatic dark spices and black pepper. Complemented by oak derived spice with a hint of vanilla. The palate shows bright raspberry and fresh black fruits, with milk chocolate, dark spice, vanilla, luscious fruit cake and long, lingering velvety tannins. A wine that displays a fine balance between elegance and power.
The Balthasar Shiraz, one of Grant Burge’s Wines of Distinction, is sourced from the Eden Valley region of the Barossa, showcasing elegance and varietal definition from this cooler part of the district.
94 Point Rated - James Halliday Wine Companion
"Matured in French oak for 18 months with a barrel selection for the final blend. Spicy red fruit with a hint of chocolate and an earthy/leathery character on the bouquet, moving into a palate generous in flavour, but with a restrained and quite softly textured feel. An interesting wine, with Eden Valley elegance presented in an open and approachable style. Ready now."
