Details
The Elderton Ashmead Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 is a true gem in the world of wine. This family-owned winery has a rich history, with the Ashmead block being planted in 1944 and almost destroyed in 1997. However, the family made the decision to promote the vineyard to a higher destiny, resulting in this superior example of Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon.
The traditional winemaking process is evident in every sip of this wine. Aged in a mix of new French Oak Hogsheads from about 8 different coopers, the Elderton Ashmead Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 is a testament to the family's commitment to sustainability and quality. The result is a wine that is both complex and balanced, with a long finish that leaves a lasting impression.
Tasting notes for this wine include blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and a hint of tobacco. The tannins are firm yet silky, providing a structure that will allow this wine to age gracefully for years to come. Food pairings for the Elderton Ashmead Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 include grilled steak, roasted lamb, and hearty stews.
As a wine enthusiast with a preference for family-owned wineries, you'll appreciate the story and heritage behind Elderton. This winery has been in the family for generations, and their commitment to quality is evident in every bottle they produce. By choosing the Elderton Ashmead Cabernet Sauvignon 2017, you're not just supporting a small winery – you're becoming part of a community of wine lovers who appreciate the craft and care that goes into every bottle.
