Sons of Eden Romulus Old Vine Barossa Valley Shiraz 2018

Tasting notes: Deep garnet in colour with an alluring complex aroma of dark-cherry, plums and roasted vanilla bean. The palate is powerful and well structured, fleshy, with chewy textured tannins finishing with polish and focus. The 2016 was an exceptional Barossa vintage indicating this wine will mature well for many years. Reviews: 97 Points, James Halliday This has volume and spread and that's always a combination worth swooning over. Dense plum, peppercorn, choc-orange and cedar wood characters delivers a masterclass of old vine Barossa shiraz. 95 Points, Robert Parker - Wine Advocate ..It's dense, ripe and concentrated yet imbued with bushels of raspberry and blueberry fruit and notes of smoked meat. Medium to full-bodied, this wonderfully drinkable Shiraz has enough softly dusty tannins to give it shape and structure, fading into an elegant, silky dusting on the lingering finish. 94 Points, James Suckling Such a bold, ripe and intense expression with deep blackberries and spiced plums, licorice and star anise. The palate is so bold and yet so soft and supple, the dark-berry flavors carry long and completely occupy the gently smoky bacon-infused finish.
