Elderton Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Harvested from estate vineyards in the Barossa, Nuriootpa (62%) and Craneford (38%). The wine spent a year and a half maturing in older French puncheons, from a superb vintage for the region. Dark maroon colour, the nose reveals notes of cloves, chocolate, warm earth, mushrooms, tobacco leaves, dry herbs, cloves and blackberries. There is some serious underlying power here, and early complexity. A seamless structure with intensity maintained for the full length of the wine, through to the very fine tannins. This is a wine which will easily provide pleasure over the next ten to twelve years and improve further over that time.
