A big brooding Barossa wine with endless layers of fruit and oak. The tannins are very well integrated and will continue to develop in years to come. A great example of a true Barossa Shiraz.

The nose shows a classic Barossa Shiraz style of blueberry, blackberry and red currant. There's spice there too, and hints of vanilla. The palate is soft and round with lovely intensity and layers of rich, dark, fruit. Fruit for this wine was sourced from 3 separate blocks from our 7 Ha vineyard located on the banks of Greenock creek. Planted in the mid 90s on their own roots, this 1654 clone 1654 Shiraz thrives on the red clay loam over limestone that makes this one of the great sub-regions of the Barossa. East/west row orientation provides perfect sun protection through the heat of the growing season and the south facing aspect creates bright fruit and an air of elegance. 10% was hand harvested and direct tipped into an open top fermenter for whole bunch fermentation. The remainder was harvested in the cool of the morning and delivered to the winery where it was destemmed into an open top fermenter. Time on skins ranged from ten thirty days before the wines were basket pressed, settled overnight and racked to seasoned French oak. The wine was blended in September then returned to oak for maturation for a total of twenty months. Partners in crime and explorers at heart, Andrew and Skye Quin are the team behind Quin wines. Having travelled the world together, they finally settled in the Barossa, with a trailer of second-hand furniture and heads full of dreams. Andrew has spent the last 10 years as Chief Winemaker for Hentley Farm, during which time he has collected a swathe of awards and accolades. But 2018 saw the launch of his own brand: Quin Wines. His philosophy is simple - respect tradition, but continue to push boundaries. And that bigger is not always better!

A lavish Single Vineyard Shiraz from a “fine Barossa vintage” (WinePilot) with a trio of 95pt scores, from winemaker Jason Schwarz, who set up Schwarz Wine Co in 2001, and whose parents are grape growers in Barossa’a Bethany. As Dave Brookes explains in The Halliday Wine Companion: “Jason Schwarz's parents planted this shiraz in Bethany in 1968… Thickly fruited with opulent blackberry, black cherry and cassis characters with hints of olive tapenade, graphite, tobacco, cedar, amaro herbs, dark chocolate bullets, turned earth and an array of dark spice. Full bodied… fine, powdery tannin and a thick-shouldered swell of black fruits that roll on for some time. 95pts. Great Value” (Dave Brookes, The Halliday Wine Companion). Shanteh Wale, WinePilot calls it:. "A celebration of old vines loving tended in the Eastern Barossa range. This calls for slow cooked meats, ox tail and inky gravy. Drink now or will cellar well for another 6-8 years further. 95pts” while for Sam Kim Wine Orbit it: "…beautifully combines power and elegance…impressively long and satisfying. 95pts."

Though part of the Barossa, the Eden Valley is a slightly cooler climate than the neighbouring Barossa Valley, so generally produce Shiraz that is slightly more elegant in style. That said, the Eden Hall Shiraz is a wine that is not only rich, vibrant and full of life today, it will also hang in for the long haul.
