| 2002 Elderton Shiraz Command | 750 ML | $61.99 | 95 Points! Robert Parker's Wine Advocate # 167 Oct 2006 Reviewer: Robert Parker | 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. Drink 2008-2026. Elderton Winemaker: Richard Langford | |
