Item Description
Elderton 2008 Command Shiraz
2008 was a hot summer and one of the earliest vintages on record. The 2008 Command shows exceptional fruit weight, with more time in French oak than in the past. It will be a long lived wine! Rich, warm and generous, it has the aroma of blackberry fruit, aniseed and spices. It will delight your palate with hints of blackberry fruit, aniseed and spices. Drink now till 2025+.
The overall vision of Elderton is excellence from distinguished vineyard sites. Today Elderton runs three vineyards that highlight the individual terriors of the region. Its original vineyard in Nuriootpa on the Barossa Valley floor that provides most of flagship wines; Greenock that is in the north western quadrant provides the power and has vines dating back to 1915 and finally its vineyard in Eden Valley ranges in Craneford that provides elegance. Today Elderton works with Barossa Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Carignan, Mourvedre, Riesling, Chardonnay and Semillon.
Elderton is among a group of Barossa Valley wineries whose philosophy has not changed significantly since its inception. Cameron and Allister strongly believe that great wine begins in the vineyard (a philosophy held by all the world’s great estates). From the high quality, low yielding fruit that is grown on the three vineyard sites, Elderton’s aim is to make balanced wines that will stand the test of time with the overall arching vision of excellence in mind. The Barossa wines typically can be enjoyed in their youth or can be cellared with confidence producing even better results.
