2022 查理花园西拉

Charlie’s Garden is our expression of Eden Valley Shiraz, sourced from elevated vineyards on Menglers Hill where cooler conditions, quartz and gravelly loam soils, and surrounding gum trees help shape a wine of freshness, perfume and fine structure. Across vintages, Charlie’s Garden shows lifted aromatics of red and dark fruits, violet, spice, eucalyptus and subtle savoury notes, carried by bright natural acidity and a distinctly mineral line. The palate is focused and finely framed, with layers of blackberry, cherry, pepper and dried florals unfolding into silky tannins and a long, elegant finish. While generous enough to enjoy in its youth, Charlie’s Garden also has the balance and structure to develop beautifully with careful cellaring.

2015
A fast, warm and compressed vintage, with Shiraz ripening early across South Australia. Eden Valley was a real bright spot in the season, producing Shiraz with excellent quality, lifted aromatics and the natural freshness we look for from the higher country.

2018
A strong, even and generous Eden Valley season, delivering Shiraz with depth, perfume and polished structure. Fruit from this vintage tends to show a lovely balance of dark berry character, spice and cool-climate lift.

2020
A very dry, low-yielding vintage across South Australia, but one that delivered exceptional quality where vine balance was carefully managed. Eden Valley Shiraz from 2020 carries concentration and intensity, shaped by small crops, soft ripening conditions and excellent flavour development.

2022
A cooler, La Niña-influenced season with good winter rainfall, mild summer conditions and no extreme heat events. The smaller crop gave Eden Valley Shiraz beautiful aromatics, bright fruit, balanced acidity and a fine, persistent structure.
