Eden Road

Canberra District, ACT

***** Outstanding Winery, James Halliday, 2011 Australian Wine Companion ...Eden Road's operations since 2008 centre on Hilltops, Canberra District and Tumbarumba. The business utilises the Kamberra Winery built by Hardys to the highest standards. At the Royal Melbourne Wine Show 2009 Eden Road's The Long Road Hilltops Shiraz '08 was awarded the Jimmy Watson Memorial Trophy; if it needed a higher profile, it now has one.” Best new winery: Eden Road Wines, Canberra District. The Age/SMH Good Wine Guide 2011

Eden Road is one of the most exciting producers to emerge from the greater Canberra district in recent times. Together with Collector Wines and others, they are proving that the trail blazed by Clonakilla was not a fluke. Here we have a young yet highly experienced winemaker, Nick Spencer - with a crystal clear, long-term vision, making a range of exceptional, high-grown wines at remarkable prices. Already this producer has won the Jimmy Watson Trophy (with its first Shiraz), received a Halliday 5 star rating and has just been awarded the “Best new winery” gong in the Age/SMH Good Wine Guide 2011. And this is only their second set of wines. The overall quality across the range is simply exceptional – especially for the prices being asked - while the wine style is all about elegance and refined drinkability. What we love about these wines is that they encapsulate the best of Australian wine both past and present. They take us back to the past via the remarkable prices being asked while the typicity of the wines (how well they reflect where they were grown) and their clean, fresh, digestible styles offer a glimpse of Australia’s most optimistic future. Those who find some Australian wines too heavy will be very pleasantly surprised by what Eden Road has to offer. Not only are these pure, refined, and dangerously easy to drink, the prices are jaw droppingly reasonable. But do not let the low prices mislead you! These are all seriously delicious wines.

The Eden Road wines all derive primarily from Canberra and NSW High Country regions. To be more specific: Canberra District, Hilltops, Gundagai and Tumbarumba. So the name has nothing to do with the Eden Valley. In fact Eden Road is supposed to suggest an ideal (as in the Garden of Eden), not a place. The aim of this producer is to create a distinctive, fresh and refined range of wines from the cool climate vineyards of NSW and the continental climate of the Canberra district, and with access to a superb range of vineyards and remarkable a state-of-the-art winery, they are in the perfect position to do just that.
