Eden Valley Red Wines

Fragrant red blend from South Australia, the nose a Mediterranean-style riot of lavender and thyme, the mouth a burst of red berries, cherries and a touch of prune.

The Barossa, Synonymous with big bold and beautiful Shiraz. The Chaffey Bros Synonymous Shiraz is right on queue. Deep crimson/purple in colour with a nose of cedar, spice and plum hinting at the mix of dark fruits and chocolate lurking on the rich structured palate. The wine shows powerful depth of flavour with plush lingering mouthfeel.

This is definitely a Grenache-driven GSM! Subtle seasoned oak and caramel lead to a deep-fruited, dark cherry and strawberry palate with supple fine-grain tannin. Gentle refreshing acidity gives great line and drives the brooding and delicious fruit through to a lingering finish.

Deep purple-crimson. An immensely complex, dark, brooding character, red and black fruits, pepper and spice, with liquorice and tar on the nose. Lingering black fruit on the palate, with pepper seasoning. A mix of red and black berries complimented by vibrant pepper and leaf notes. Elegant tannins and lingering acidity help extend the finish and the overall balance is impeccable.

An extraordinary Shiraz from the Eden Valley that is inky red in the glass, the wine has lifted red fruits on the nose as well as darker blackberry and blueberry aromas.

Intense, tightly coiled and vital, this wine is like a great orator. Beautifully complex, red and black bramble fruits support the naunces of spice and peppery notes. Every component measured and well timed, the tone lifts and falls, all the while building emotion and resonance. Tension and excitement builds and leads through to a memorable finish. Oh, and it tastes amazing!

The nose shows an array of perfumed characters such as violets, oregano & thyme, along with glac� cherry aromas. Sweet ripe cherry fruit dominates the front palate which then develops into a more savoury wine, showing earthiness, toasted spices and lovely dried herb characters.
