Neldner Road (Formerly Powell and Son) Loechal Eden Valley Shiraz
Eden Valley
Price Range at Release: $100-$199
Vintage: 2019
Alc %: 14.5
$ Rel: 150
A complete and more assertive Eden Valley shiraz whose dark, briary and mineral aromas of plums, cassis, blackberries are knit with faintly smoky, charry chocolate/mocha oak. A long, plush and vivacious presence of pristine and faintly sour-edged dark fruit is supported by a typical powdery/mineral spine, culminating in a lingering and refreshing finish of finely balanced acidity. Simultaneously rich, powerful and stylish.

Neldner Road (Formerly Powell and Son)
Dave Powell, founder of Torbreck, has re-entered Australian wine, this time with his son, Callum at his side. Since 2014 the company has focused on high-quality sites across both the Eden Valley and Barossa Valley, retaining Dave Powell's dual focuses on Rhône Valley varieties as well as his well known intent to chase elegance, savoury finesse and structure. The new Powell & Son wines combine extraordinary depth of layered fruit, handsome oak and fine textures with the minerality and thoughtful composition associated with the finest wines of Dave Powell's previous existence. But Torbreck these wines are not – there's a distinctly different style here to what Torbreck became. I'm truly excited to get to know these compelling wines.
