2020 ‘Cold Sweat’ Eden Valley Syrah – Craneford
2020 ‘Cold Sweat’ Eden Valley Syrah – Craneford
[C O L D S W E A T]
It’s all about the one, give the drummer some! With this Eden Valley project we are looking for the ultimate expressions of three cooler climate sites and working hard to find them, utilising all of our experience. Syrah from a single vineyard in Craneford.
A DARK, MINTY AND HERBACEOUS EXPRESSION OF EDEN VALLEY SYRAH.
Eden Valley offers an ideal setting for us to explore new vinous boundaries. Positioned at a higher elevation than the Barossa Valley, we fully embrace the region's savoury character, allowing us to craft a wider array of Syrah expressions that reflect the distinctiveness of their unique terroirs.
Colour: Garnet red with purple hues.
Bouquet: A complex nose of dark cherry, tomato leaf, celery and soy.
Palate: A textured palate of fine graphite tannins supports complex dark cherry, savoury and spice flavours.
Cellaring: Drink up, but also 10 year proposition.

Let customers speak for us
from 26 reviewsThe wines were delivered super quickly so we got to take a couple on our road trip and they were delicious. Looking forward to enjoying the other 4 bottles over Xmas with friends when I’m back home.
I didn't like the previous Drag Queen rose as Cinsault Mataro was just not my thing. I was privileged to taste the new 100% Grenache when it was about 2 days old and even then, it sparked something on my palate that made me think I might very much like this version when it is released. Now that it's in the bottle, it is certainly has lived up to that expectation so much so that I have added it to my wine club order. The 2024 release is definitely a winner for me.
The Spring 6 pack has a great variety which is sure to keep everyone happy, it's also a good way of trying other wines which otherwise you may have passed on.
I will be getting another pack before they run out.
This is such a great wine to drink anytime, not just summer. It isn't sweet but then not super dry enough to have no flavour. This has plenty of flavour for a prosecco and is one of my favs from First Drop. Perfect with any of their tapas dishes too!
The Matador is my favourite drop%2C perfect for long lunches or a pizza at dinner…
It's simply a devine drink now wine from First Drop. Love it!
I love this wine! It’s a lighter style, but full of flavour - so juicy and fruity! Beautiful chilled too.
Such a great tasting wine. So smooth. Great flavour going down and a great after taste.
The Matador Grenache is a beautiful tasting wine very smooth on the Palat, I will definitely be ordering some more in the near future.
Great with food or on its own, just like in the Piemonte
Always a pleasure to drink & very affordable
