2016 Eden Hall Vintage Report
2006 Eden Hall Vintage Report
The 2006 vintage was characterised by high to excellent fruit quality but with only average yields in the Eden Valley. Winter and spring rains were some of the best for years in the lead up to flowering in early summer, although some varieties, such as Riesling and Shiraz, suffered more than others from poor fruit set.
The summer was mild with southerly winds, reminiscent of 2002. Brief heat waves occurred in late January and mid-February but were early enough not to affect quality, with only minor sunburn on exposed fruit. Mild dry Autumn conditions allowed for the development of wonderfully balanced fruit quality and flavours.
