WOODS CRAMPTON Frances & Nicole Single Vineyard Shiraz 2012
97 Points, James Halliday - Published on 27 Jul 2014
'Says Nicholas Crampton, 'We never thought we would do a flagship wine, but when we did we thought we had better name it after our wives.' Aw shucks. This takes the description of velvety mouthfeel to an almost unbelievable level, smoothly coating every corner and crevice of the mouth with unctuous black fruits, super-ripe tannins and oak in that order of importance. Just when you think you have finished tasting the wine, a joyous flare of juicy red fruits comes through on the finish and aftertaste. 150 dozen made. Drink to 2047'
Region
Eden Valley
The Eden Valley is a cool and elevated sub-region of the Barossa situated in the Barossa Range to the east, overlooking the Barossa Valley. Low water availabilty, high altitude and strong winds make site selection in the region very important . The vineyeard soils are derived from schistic and sedimentary rock and are comprised mostly of red clay and sandy, silty loams interspersed with schistic gravels. The Eden Valley is renowned for its floral talc scented Rieslings and vibrant fruit pure Shiraz. Cool climate Chardonnay also performs well as does Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.
