Sons of Eden

Remus Old Vine Shiraz

A story that has intrigued Sons of Eden for years is the fable of the legendary founders of Ancient Rome, Romulus and Remus. These twins were abandoned at birth and reared by a she-wolf. Romulus murdered his twin in a fit of rage over the naming of Rome, the city which both had built. Legend presents Romulus as the stronger, more powerful of the brothers, while Remus was more refined, focussed and elegant. Sons of Eden believe the twins’ characterise the distinctive and unique flavours and attributes of Shiraz from the twin valleys - the Barossa Valley and Eden Valley. Deep inky purple in colour with crimson hues this wine displays red current and blackberry notes together with complex spicy aromas. On the palate layers of wild berry fruit character with nuances of dried herb. Long fine velvety tannins and a core strength of flavour persists through the length of the palate.
