Elderton Cabernet (Barossa) '21

Elderton Cabernet Sauvignon is a rich, full-bodied wine made from 100% Estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from old vines in Greenock, low-yielding vines in Nuriootpa, and higher elevation vines in Craneford. Aged for 24 months in older French oak puncheons and hogsheads, the wine features aromas of chocolate, black forest fruits, and savory herbs. On the palate, it offers rich blackberry compote, dark chocolate notes, and cedary oak, with a long, powerful finish balanced by fine tannins. It has received 94 points from Sam Kim for its expressive fruit and robust structure. 92 points from Ray Jordan highlights its juicy energy and vibrant fruit, while 92 points from Natalie MacLean praises its elegant, generous style. This wine can be enjoyed now or cellared for up to 10 years, with pairings such as roast beef, venison, and grilled steaks.
