Elderton's Command Shiraz is one old school Barossa Shiraz. Named because of the special treatment the quality fruit 'commanded', this is a Shiraz of foreboding concentration. The fruit for this 'Excellent' Langton's classified Australian icon comes from the century old Elderton vineyard located on the banks of the Para River and is matured in a mixture of French and American oak. This allows the wine to retain its driven power while also giving the wine a level of complexity and balance unique to this region and producer. Elderton's Command can be enjoyed by lovers of ripe and rich fruit early, yet will reward the truly patient with a wine of true beauty when left alone to mature for a decade.
Drinking Window: 2014 - 2034
Critic tasting note: (2010 vintage) "Dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, discreet ochre rim. Ripe black forest berries, delicate hints of liquorice, sweet tobacco, nuances of vanilla, a hint of dried figs, attractive, well-developed bouquet. Powerful, juicy, silky texture, sweet fruit, fine tannins, pleasant nougat touch, subtle notes of prunes in the aftertaste, shows good length, a velvety food wine with further ageing potential." - 94/100, Falstaff
