"Brightly fruited and attractively fragrant, the bouquet shows Black Doris plum, cranberry, floral, vanilla and roasted nut characters. The palate delivers succulent fruit weight and intensity, wonderfully supported by silky texture and a lingering juicy finish. It is up front and friendly, offering excellent drinking. At its best: now to 2020. $20.00" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2018

"A highly attractive wine at the price, this is all blueberries, black cherry, violet, a hint of nutmeg spice, pimento and a dollop of creamy oak. Full and pliant in the mouth, the gentle tannins are just tactile enough to give focus and restraint, arresting any hint of jamminess. Picked on the judicious edge of optimal ripeness, expressing Barossa in a lighter shade" James Halliday, Haliliday Wine Companion, Aug 2017

The Ashmead family began their wine adventure when they purchased the Elderton vineyard in 1979 and first released wines from the Estate in 1982. Today, Elderton is run by second generation brothers, Cameron and Allister, and together they work to uphold the values and traditions that were originally set by their parents. They also work to stay true to great Australian winemaking history. It is their belief that Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon are made to be blended with each other in Australia, and hope you really enjoy this wine.

Food Pairing: A perfect match with pizza, pasta or a great accompaniment to the classic Aussie BBQ with good mates.
