Description

Established in 2000, Sons of Eden is intimately involved in all aspects of crafting wines of unquestionable quality, from the vineyard right through to the bottle.

Varieties that the Barossa produces to a world standard are hand-picked from 30 unique vineyard sites and handled through Sons of Eden’s minimal intervention small-batch winery. As a result, the wines have a strong sense of individuality. With a combined 50 Barossa vintages amassed between the Sons, Corey Ryan, and Simon Cowham, their focus on crafting world-class wines is uncompromising.

The PUMPA is a blend of Eden Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. Named as a tribute to Len PUMPA and his fellow Eden Valley Vignerons who pioneered and persisted in one of Australia’s most challenging but rewarding viticultural regions. Eden Valley had a mix of British and European settlers that tried their hand at grape growing. When times were tough, particularly in the 1920s many turned away from viticulture, however, the Prussian settlers like Len PUMPA persisted in the face of difficulty, preserving the vineyard resources we are custodians of today.

Review

Striking black-fruit aromas, such as cherry and currant, on the nose here, as well as dark-stony elements, such as graphite. Dark herbs, too. The palate has a clever mix of power and smooth-honed tannins that are really ripe. Oak kicks up the spice on the finish. Drink or hold.

Tasting Profile

Nose
Crimson in colour, displaying seductive dark cherry, wild forest herb, and hints of sandalwood aromas.
Palate
The palate is fleshy and rounded, with ripe chewy tannins, finishing with an upbeat freshness. Approachable now, this wine will continue to gain complexity as it matures.
