Grant Burge Filsell Shiraz 2023

Welcoming from the outset, with a faintly smoky, charry sense to the nose, a suggestion of crumbled earth and forest floor as an understorey. Then comes the fruit – a fresh crush of purple plum, vibrant flavours, a reverb of that initial blacksmithy char, and an intricate weave of fine yet sticky tannins with a lip-smacking finish. Its depth with a confident vitality gives this a special sensibility and a formidable future.
