Tasting Notes:

Deep crimson red in colour. Cedar fragrances and blue fruits are joined by complex earthy tones, lots of blackberry, blackcurrant and chocolate. An elegant and generously flavoured wine that is succulent with a rich core of dark berries and smooth chocolate coated tannins.


Technical:

A moderate winter was followed by a warm, dry spring and start to summer. At the end of January approximately 25mm of rain fell which gave the vines the drink they needed to finish off ripening the grapes. Warm days during summer and autumn were mediated by cool nights, leading to great acidity retention and pristine fruit flavours.

Sourced entirely from two Eden Valley vineyards. The Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from the Miles vineyard at Craneford and the Shiraz from Yalumba’s horseshoe vineyard on the south side of the winery. From these vineyards comes a wine of intriguing complexity that’s as expressive as the earth in which the vines are grown.

70% Eden Valley Cabernet Sauvignon & 30% Eden Valley Shiraz

Accolades & Awards:

93 Points Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion 

70/30% cabernet sauvignon/shiraz, matured in French oak (29% new) for 14 months. Blackberry, blackcurrant and black cherry fruits of impressive intensity are underscored with hints of baking spice, sage, graphite, cedar, licorice, dark chocolate and earth. There’s a dense black-fruit core and inky fruit depth to its form, chewy of tannin and bright of acid, with a flourish of briar-flecked blackberry on the finish.
