Elderton Barossa Shiraz – 2000
The scents coming from the top of this wine are amazing. There be spice, fruit (plum i think) and dark dark dark chocolate. I have had the cork out and it airing for the past 45 minutes, and currently the best of this wine is yet to come, and its coming, although some of what I am percieveing as tightness might actually be the beginnings of corking, edit…alas beyond this first mouthful it seems that this wine was indeed corked and undrinkable, which is sad, as it appears to have a lot of potential based on the initial taste.
Either way I am going to shove this onto my must buy some future years list and see how they progress over the years.
