2019 Sons of Eden Eden Valley Pumpa Cabernet Sauvignon
Sons of Eden Pumpa Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 is a vibrant Eden Valley red that blends Cabernet Sauvignon with a small portion of Shiraz, delivering both structure and approachability.
Expressive and balanced, it combines dark fruit intensity with a softer, more rounded texture.
My Wine Man
This is for someone who wants Cabernet Sauvignon that is structured but still easy to enjoy.
If you find some Cabernets too rigid or dry, this is a great fit — it keeps the backbone of Cabernet, but with more softness and drinkability.
In my view, this is a very smart, modern style — polished, balanced and very usable.
What makes this wine stand out
This is all about balance and texture.
Blackcurrant, plum and dark cherry sit at the core, supported by cedar, herbs and subtle spice.
The addition of a small amount of Shiraz (around 10–12%) adds:
- softness
- perfume
- a slightly richer mouthfeel
The result is a Cabernet that feels rounder and more approachable, without losing structure.
Style / drinking window
Medium-bodied with blackcurrant, plum, spice and herbal notes.
Fine, slightly chewy tannins and fresh acidity provide balance and length.
Drinking well now, with development potential over the next few years.
