Description

Mountadam Vineyards High Eden range is the selection of the best parcels of fruit from the Estate. ‘The Red’ has traditionally been a blend of the best Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot or Shiraz fruit from the Estate. In 2017 the best fruit from the Estate resulted in a blend of 67% Cabernet Sauvignon and 33% Merlot. The Cabernet fruit was sourced entirely from the Reynell clone in block 21 on 26th April 2017 at 13.9 ºBe. The Merlot was sourced from block 35 on 18th April at 14.2 ºBe. The parcels were vinified separately in small closed static fermenters with the optimum blend being carried out post malolactic fermentation. Oak maturation was carried out in 100% new tight grain French oak barriques for a total 24 months.

Barossa Valley Wine

The Barossa Valley wine region has historically and currently still is one of Australia's most prestigious premium wine producing regions. Located just 60km north east of Adelaide city centre, the climate there is very hot and dry which is perfect for the big bold reds the area is famous for.

A straight Shiraz is what Barossa is most well known for, however Rhone blends, such as Shiraz Cabernet are also very popular. While much less prevalent, white wines (Chardonnay, Riesling, Semillon) are planted on the higher altitude hillsides where the ocean breeze cools temperatures down to a level suitable for producing these varieties as well.

Some of Australia's earliest Shiraz plantings can be found here dating as far back as the 1850's. While not always a guarantee of quality, it might be worth seeking out and trying one of the region's "old vine shiraz" if you haven't yet.
