At the southern end of the Barossa near Mount Crawford sits a 150-year-old property marked by two grand stone pillars - Grant Burge's Corryton Park. It's planted on some of the highest, coolest ground in the region, exactly the kind of site serious Cabernet needs to build real finesse. This shows us what great fruit turns into over a decade. Unbelievable.

Why do we love this wine?
This one blends fruit from the home vineyard with select parcels off the Barossa floor. 2016 was a genuinely strong vintage - cool winter, dry spring, mild ripening season - and you can see it all, right there in the glass. Small batches, picked and fermented separately to let each patch of vines show its character, with some parcels left on skins for up to 30 days to build richness and soften the tannins. Eighteen months in French oak hogsheads finished the job. Deep purple with a bright violet hue. Cassis, dark chocolate, black forest cake, tomato leaf and cedar on the nose. The palate is powerful and full-textured - chocolate and berry, backed by fine, well-mannered tannin. A wonderful Barossa expression.
