    1999 Elderton "CSM" (Cab/Shiraz/Merlot)
  NURIOOTPA, BAROSSA VALLEY
 
 
 
       
 
Good January Release Case Size: 12/750ml Bordeaux Blends
   
  Tasting Notes

100% Estate grown. The 60% Cabernet Sauvignon gives this wine its structure and backbone, the 30% Shiraz its dark fruit and spice, and the 10% Merlot adds charm and a well-rounded finish. An iron fist in a velvet glove!!

A powerful and intense wine delivers a mouthful of ripe plums, spice and liquorice notes as well as chocolate and mocha nuances.

A long finish assisted by healthy acidity and supple fruit tannins and a nicely balanced application of French and American oak for 20 months.

A wine ready to drink now, but will evolve beautifully over the next 6 to 10 years. Think gamey meats when considering unleashing the power and charm of this wine.
