Elderton Barossa SH

Elderton Wines is proudly owned by the Ashmead family in Australia’s picturesque Barossa Valley and offers some of the best Barossa wines that the region has to offer. With a philosophy of winemaking that has stayed with us throughout the years, our vision is to create excellence from distinguished vineyard sites. Our flagship wines, the Command and Ashmead Cabernet Sauvignon are renowned single vineyard wines, sourced from vineyards that date back to 1894 and 1944 respectively.

Today, Elderton runs three vineyards that highlight the individual terroirs of the region through a wide range of varietals; Nuriootpa supplies most of our flagship wines; Greenock provides the power and vines dating back to 1915; and finally, Eden Valley offers elegance. From the three vineyard sites, Elderton’s aim is to make balanced wines that can be enjoyed young but will stand the test of time.

This is a smoky, full-bodied wine from the Ashmead Family Vineyards in the Barossa Valley sourced from vines that ar3e between 15 to 100 years old. Intense with dark plum, blackberry, smoky vanilla and toasty oak spice flavours on the palate. Pair it with smoky ribs from the grill.

Food pairings: BBQ meats, hearty meat meals, aged cheddar, grilled lamb.
