2018 Pure Eden Shiraz 6 pack
Wine Club discount applies
Pure Eden is a single site wine, made from an Eden Valley vineyard planted by Charles Angas in the 1890s. Later owned by the Shiltons 1911 -1926; Meakins 1926-1929; Roeslers 1929-1961; Andretzkes 1961-2011 and now the Lindner family. This wine is a reward of these guardians’ efforts for more than one hundred years.
Deep, dense purple/red colour. The aromas are tilted towards mixed spices together with black fruits, a whiff of char-oak, pepper and graphite, the palate full-bodied and firmly structured, with lashings of drying tannins and lots of Christmas cake, plum pudding flavours, the ample soft tannins drying off the finish and countering the opulence of the flavours. A powerful shiraz that's not without elegance. Huon Hooke 96 Points
