"Lovely intense raspberry, blackberry pastille, hint mocha aromas with herb garden/ sage notes. Pure and inky textured with superb raspberry pastille, blackberry fruits, persistent fine slinky/ brambly textures and underlying grilled nut, vanilla notes. Al-dente firm at the finish with persistent sweet fruit notes and a kick of aniseed. This a gorgeous reference Eden Valley Shiraz with superb fruit definition, energy and flow." - Andrew Caillard

 

"One of Australia’s most famous wines, it too often falls under the shadow of Hill of Grace, notwithstanding that it has been around for even longer. It is the generosity of this wine that makes the most striking impression. Plush, approachable, ripe, just sheer class. There are aromas of aniseed, sage, bay leaves, chocolate, black fruits, soy, cloves and beef stock. The palate sees more strawberry notes emerge. Seamless, with a nice line of fresh acidity and a lingering finish, it is the seductive creamy texture which stands out. This is a wine vibrating with promise, walking the tightrope between finesse and power. Time in the glass saw the perfumes really explode forth. Twenty to thirty years, standing on its head." - Ken Gargett

 

"Calm, deliberate, detailed and celestial, Prue knows when to pick this wine, and I feel she has nailed each bunch with Swiss precision in 2021 because every sip has effortless grace despite the scale and directness of the flavour. This wine has a thrilling future ahead of it, and it is another horizon-expanding example of what this incredible vineyard is capable of."Matthew Jukes

 

"The wine is velvety and layered with raw cocoa tannins, black pepper, Sichuan pepper, raspberry and blood plum. This has all the concentration and intensity that we know and love of Mount Edelstone; it speaks clearly to Eden Valley as a place, with notes of sage, bay, crushed rocks and a cool minerality that drives it through the long finish. This is a superb wine." - Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate
