From the estate Eden Valley vineyard. It is medium to full-bodied and fast out of the box in revealing wild blackberry fruits with a savoury/bramble backdrop. Oak has been a means to an end, the taste minimal, leaving room for ripe tannins to complete the picture of yet another high quality shiraz.

Deep red/purple colour with a very fragrant, lifted, aromatic nose - violet, cherry, raspberry and fragrant spice, not so much pepper but it has a bouquet of balsamic herbs. Superb elegance and aromaticity, a gorgeous, utterly delicious shiraz in a cool-climate style, which is more Adelaide Hills-like than Eden Valley. A beautiful wine!
