Elderton
Elderton was established in 1984
by Neil Ashmead - it is now run by Allister and Cameron Ashmead.
The winery is located on the banks of the Barossa Valley`s North Para River just outside the town of Nuriootpa. The fruit is drawn from 31 hectares of high-quality vineyards in the Barossa Valley. Aged between 40 and 102 years old, coupled with minimal irrigation, the vines produce rich, concentrated fruit showing off classic varietal flavours.
Its flagship wine is the Command Shiraz, which is made from small parcels of vines planted in 1939 and 1947. It is matured in American oak puncheons for 24 months and is one of the richest and concentrated examples of Barossa Shiraz to be found today.
Elderton released Tantalus to provide an easy drinking style of premium red at an every day drinking price. Tantalus was a figure from Greek Mythology who was punished for offending the Gods by being kept perpetually thirsty and hungry but tantalised by water and fruit he could see, but not quite reach.

This big wine with juicy black fruit is laced with leathery spice, thanks to an open-top fermentation and old oak élévage. This is made in a classic Australian style and, not surprisingly, is a great barbecue wine | ||||

Benchmark Barossa, brimming with spicy sweet red fruit, a velveteen mouthfeel, a hint of orange peel, while the generous yet composed palate, tinged with coconut has a touch of the tropical. Perfect with a hearty sausage casserole. Drinking now till 2011. (David Berry Green, BBR Buyer) | ||||
