Elderton Command Shiraz 2002 750ml, Barossa Valley

Expert Reviews

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 95 pts - A stunning effort, the 2002 Shiraz Command exhibits an inky/blue/purple color as well as a sweet perfume of camphor, blueberries, blackberries, acacia flowers, and smoky, toasty oak. Full-bodied, opulent, and viscous, with huge, but sweet tannin, decent acidity, and a muscular, long, 40+ second finish, this is a classic, potentially long-lived, Barossa blockbuster. It's accessible now, but ideally needs another 2-4 years of bottle age, and should keep for two decades. - Oct 2006

James Halliday's Wine Companion - 95 pts - Good colour; excellent focus, balance and length; blackberry fruit with lashings of dark chocolate and spice; ripe tannins, controlled oak.Date tasted 15 May 2006. Drink by 2022
