Sourced from Elderton’s century-old vines, this vintage offers a deep and opulent bouquet of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and plums, complemented by layers of black pepper, licorice, and dark chocolate. On the palate, it is full-bodied and rich, with velvety tannins and a complex blend of concentrated dark fruit, vanilla, and spice. The wine’s exceptional structure and balance are evident in its long, smooth finish, with subtle oak and earthy undertones adding to its depth.
Producer Information
Elderton is an Australian family-owned producer based in the Barossa Valley of South Australia. It is best known for its old-vine Shiraz red wines, led by the Command cuvée. However, it first came to prominence after winning a major Australian wine award in 1993 for its Cabernet Sauvignon. The core family estate is located in Nuriootpa, and has 29 hectares (72 acres) under vine. It was purchased in 1979 in a run-down condition by the Ashmead family, who were offered the surrounding vineyards for free if they bought the homestead. The vineyards included some old plots dating back to original planting of 1894, and the Ashmeads embarked on a period of restoration. The first wines under the Elderton label were produced in 1982. The Nuriootpa vineyard is planted on alluvial silt soils over water-retaining clay, which allows irrigation to be kept to a minimum. These vineyards are very low-yielding, due in part to age, with some the Cabernet Sauvignon vines affected by Eutypa, which also creates intensely concentrated grapes. Over the years, other vineyards have been added to the Elderton portfolio – specifically the Craneford vineyard in Eden Valley and the Greenock vineyard in western Barossa.
