Tasting Notes

• Aroma: Classic and noble Eden Valley Shiraz with crushed pink peppercorn, freshly picked plum, freshly tilled soil, bay leaf, thyme, sage, fennel leaf, nutmeg, mace, early morning mushrooms, blackberry confit, and dark chocolate liqueur.

• Bouquet: Delicate and restrained oak use reflects the winemaker’s refined subtlety, with smooth, finely woven tannins that bring the wine together.

• Palate: Balanced and enticing fruit flavors of plum, seasonal blackberries, and chilled blueberries spread beautifully, with subtle notes of cedar and smoked meat adding complexity.

• Finish: Long and concentrated, showcasing rich fruit density.

Critical Acclaim

• The Wine Advocate RP 96+:
  “Dark and resiny with a brooding nose of graphite, char, pencil shavings, purple fruits, flowers, and exotic spice. Gorgeous tannic structure — firm but finely ground — with fruit pressed around it. Eden Valley expresses its rocky terroir and cold nights, showing black tea/Earl Grey tea character offsetting blue/purple fruit. A sensational wine with excellent aging potential.”
