Winemaker Notes

This single-vineyard shiraz is an example of our philosophy of growing high-quality grapes and making premium wine from the best of the fruit, with the help of the best winemakers we can find. We produce very limited quantities and strive to foster goodwill through the enjoyment of wines which bear the Eden Springs label. High Eden, home to Eden Springs and this unique wine, is a sub-region of the Eden Valley, in South Australias Barossa Zone. It is a cool-climate, high-altitude wine-producing area with low-yielding contoured vineyards winding around steep, misty hillsides. We hope you will share in the special qualities of our vineyard as you enjoy this premium shiraz. This premium shiraz has spent 12 months in American oak hogsheads and has the potential to benefit from up to 10 years of careful cellaring. Only 365 cases were produced.

Though Syrah originated in the Rhône Valley of France, Australia is home to the oldest Syrah (called Shiraz here) vines on the planet. Found in Australia’s Barossa Valley, where phylloxera has never threated viticulture, these ancient vines are between 140 to 175 years old!

Having brought fame and merit to the country’s wine scene since the early 1950s, namely via the debut of Penfolds Grange, today Syrah (Shiraz) claims rank as the most widely planted grape in Australia. In fact, the amount of land dedicated to Shiraz in Australia is now almost equivalent to what it is in France. Australian Shiraz has its own personality with flavors and aromas of intense blackberry, fruitcake, menthol, tobacco leaf and umami. Conveniently one can find great Australian Shiraz at a variety of price points but the very best will be dense, gloriously complex and capable of long aging.
