95 Points - Dave Brookes
Sons of Eden is one of the Barossa's brightest young wineries, committed to delivering wines with flavour and personality from vineyards throughout this famous wine region. Sons of Eden takes its name from the two partners, Winemaker Corey Ryan and Viticulturist Simon Cowham, who both learned and refined their trades in the vineyards and cellars of Eden Valley.
The 2022 Sons Of Eden Zephyrus Shiraz is made from a blend of 14 unique individual Shiraz parcels grown throughout the Barossa Region. The blend of cooler climate Eden Valley Shiraz and warmer climate Barossa Valley Shiraz combine beautifully to enhance the palate, structure and aromatics. Perfumed with a spicy mix of wild-berry and dried Spring herbs, palate is richly concentrated with a focused red fruit core surrounded by delicious, supple layered tannins. Another cracking top-line Barossa Shiraz from the team at Sons Of Eden.
"95 Points. Deep crimson in the glass with aromas of macerated doris plum, black cherry and blackberry fruits, cut with hints of baking spices, licorice, dark chocolate, cedar, panforte, pan juices and earth. Weighty, with impressive depth and ferrous-edged tannin grip, fading with a crème-de-cassis-like intensity to the fruit. Drink: 2024 - 2036. 14.5% alc. Screwcap."- Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion.
