"Elderton Command Shiraz is a single vineyard wine that has established a formidable international reputation since the first vintage in 1984. The Command vineyard is located on the southern edge of the Nuriootpa township and planted on deep alluvial silt over red and brown earth and limestone. The majority of the rows are orientated east-west (as opposed to the more common orientation of north-south). This enables cooling breezes from the Barossa Ranges to flow through the rows of vines rather than against them. The Command block is planted out with Shiraz vines that are 120 years old which contributes the monumental layers of flavour and complexity. Matured in a combination of new American and French oak puncheons for 30 months and then given a further 12 months bottle age before being released.

Totally opaque black dark red core with a bright dark red hue. Heady aromas of dark plums, liquorice and blackberries are delivered with great intensity. Vanillin oak, confectionary and light pepper scents ensue. Enormously rich, powerful and long, lavish spicy dark plum, liquorice and blackberry flavours sit over a backdrop of vanillin oak, traces of earthy mocha and pepper. A voluptuous textural feel combines with cashmere like tannins. Magnificent depth and concentration concluding with a long seductive aftertaste.

Drink over the next 8-10 years."
