Today, this wine includes fruit from the three exceptional estate vineyards that the Ashmead family own. Elderton was transformed from a vineyard supplying quality fruit to other wineries to a winery in its own right in 1982, and have since won much recognition for all of the wines, especially the Shiraz. Barossa Shiraz is now highly collectable worldwide, and the Elderton is always a benchmark for the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThere are many blocks of Shiraz on the three Elderton estate vineyards, some as old as 100 years. Some of the best parcels from each of these single sites (Nuriootpa, Greenock and Craneford) are blended to create what one can only describe as ‘the perfect Barossa Shiraz’. The grapes, which are lovingly tended to by Peter Wild and his team, are mainly harvested at an optimum maturity of about 14 – 15 Baume.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWinemakers Comments \u003cbr\u003eThe 2017 vintage was characterised by steady ripening of fruit across the Barossa. From our vineyards we were able to get great fresh flavours particular to each site, with some tight just-ripe tannins behind to balance the fruit. We love the freshness that 2017 brings, and the elegance in the wines as a result.\u003cbr\u003e- Julie Ashmead\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eStyle Full bodied, rich, classic\u003cbr\u003eColour A rich and vibrant dark purple\u003cbr\u003eAroma Black forest fruits, dark chocolate and vanilla with hints of coconut\u003cbr\u003ePalate Plum and berries, chocolate and a spice finish\u003cbr\u003eDrink Drink now or cellar confidently for 10 - 15 years from vintage\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45511627571511,"sku":null,"price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0773\/5148\/5751\/products\/Elderton_Estate_Shiraz_Wine__72277.1607130108.1280.1280.jpg?v=1702453047","url":"https:\/\/whiskeyshipped.com\/products\/elderton-estate-shiraz-wine-barossa-australia-2017-750ml","provider":"Whiskey Shipped","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
