Description

Yet another home run from the clever fellas at Sons of Eden. Lovers of big, bold Shiraz, look no further.

In Ancient Greek mythology, Zephyrus was the God of the west wind. The westerly wind is key to the warmer climate of the Barossa, allowing a cool change in the afternoons to extend the ripening period of the fruit.

Zephyrus is a blend of fruit from different vineyards across both the Barossa & Eden Valleys. The Sons say the blend of these fruits combine to enhance the structure and aromatics of the wine.

A class act South Australian Shiraz that always goes down extremely well, replete with all the richness and depth that the Barossa and Eden Valleys are known for.

Deep crimson in colour displaying dark cherry, plum and red-spice aromas. The palate is equally attractive, with a rich concentrated and rounded mouthfeel, finishing with vibrancy and freshness. A modern style Barossa Shiraz which will mature beautifully for many years to come.


Fruit grown throughout the Barossa region, this wine is a blend of 10 unique vineyard sites. A combination of cooler climate Eden Valley Shiraz (53%) and warmer climate Barossa Valley Shiraz (47%) work in unison to create a well-balanced wine.

96 Points - "Open-fermented and hand-plunged, each fermenter with whole bunch (10% to 35%) inclusion. Matured for 12 months in French hogsheads (35% new) and bottled without fining or filtration. A delicious shiraz, with a juicy mouthfeel, partly due to whole bunch which also invests attractive spicy notes on the finish." - James Halliday (The Weekend Australian)

95 Points - "Rich, lush, spice/pepper and aged leather nose, with dark and cooler red fruit aromatics. The mouthfeel is full and fleshy, with clusters of precision berries dancing on the palate with incredible freshness. Ample soft tannins add structure and balance. A wine that will age for years." - 95 pts + Gold Medal, Decanter World Wine Awards 2022

    Great taste for the price

    The Sons of Eden team have done it again. This shiraz has good structure and flavour. It is good drinking at a very affordable price.

    Title fighter for best Shiraz under $35

    This and ‘The Dirtman’ are a great pair to crack and argue who is the winner under $35

Sons of Eden

Sons of Eden offer some of the best value in the Barossa Valley today.

With the combination of Simon Cowham's viticultural experience and Corey Ryan's winemaking nous, they are one of the most formidable teams in the region.

The boys have successfully grown their brand with a suite of full-flavoured but well-proportioned Barossa and Eden Valley wines - predominantly reds - that have gained impressive critical acclaim.

With a suite of exceptional old-vine resources at their disposal, their wines are simultaneously approachable and cellar-worthy. These are red-blooded Barossa Valley and Eden Valley wines which over-deliver year in, year out.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
