Elderton 'Ashmead' Cabernet Sauvignon 75cl

The 2022 vintage shows restraint, almost like a sleeping giant. Powerful blackberry flavors are complemented by hints of cinnamon and dark chocolate. The finish is long, with fresh berry notes alongside silky tannins.
A small parcel of Cabernet planted in the 1940s, the Ashmead block has consistently produced exceptional fruit. Nearly destroyed in 1997 to make way for higher-yielding vines, the family chose to preserve it, leading to the creation of the Ashmead. The 2022 vintage marks the 22nd release of this Old Vine Barossa Valley Cabernet, continuing Elderton's legacy of premium Cabernet, which includes over 8 trophies, including the 1993 Jimmy Watson Trophy.
