Powell & Son, Loechel Eden Valley Shiraz 2016

"From 70-year-old vines on granitic soils in the Eden Valley, the 2016 Loechel Shiraz features bright, floral aromas, hints of crushed stone and a tight, unyielding core of blueberry fruit. It's medium to full-bodied, firm and concentrated, with plenty of aging potential. It's perhaps the most Northern Rhône-ish of these offerings." - Wine Advocate

"Dense and smooth, this strikes a balance between juicy, licorice-scented red fruit flavors and more concentrated notes of fresh loam, rosemary, cigar box and savory bacon fat. Harmonious and expressive on the generous, long finish. Drink now through 2028. 300 cases made." - Wine Spectator
