The first of 3 Yalumba Octavius Shiraz brought to the Cairns BYO Indian restaurant. No formal notes but you could use the notes for the just posted Elderton Command. The other 2 Octavius drunk on the night were 2015 and 2016 which were excellent but way too young. — 5 years ago

Choosing the next Downs Club White wine from 44 masked entries. Great balance between fruit and oak - the former in the peaches/stone fruit style. Very balanced. Amazing QPR selling for $15 on the Elderton web site with a LUC to the Club at under $10. My choice on the night but sadly democracy prevailed and another wine got the nod. — 7 years ago

Very black wine. One of the darkest I've seen. Very complex wine. Dark black currant, blackberries, strawberries, cherries, very bold cocoa/chocolate. Smells extremely hot, spicy, red fruit. Medium long finish and medium plus acid. The longer it's in the glass, the more flavors that come out. Really blown away. — 9 years ago

Rich and meaty, complex, and delicious. Had some nice spices at the finish. The fruit was ripe and rounded. Really a good red with meat. — 11 years ago

At eight years of age this one is still incredibly youthful. Mostly dark primary fruit - juicy blackcurrant - with spicy tobacco notes. Drinking swimmingly right now. — 8 years ago

From a 6 liter Imperial bottle

Cork completely destroyed and soaked through. Needed some tricks to get it out

Wine was lighter than expected in body and density as if it was a Pinot but then had some tobacco and earthy flavors to show its age.

As it aerated over 3-4 hours - it developed really good aromas and had a touch of stewed fruits left in it.

Did not live up to hype but was enjoyed by all. — a year ago

@Delectable Wine this is actually Old Vine Grenache which they don't produce every year.

The girls had access to an old plot of vines from the Elderton properties and the idea to make this gorgeous little wine was automatic.

Small victories is a department of Elderton in a way. It is run by the two wives of the Ashmead bros owners of Elderton wines.

The winemaker Jules is a Campbell from Rutherglen and has winemaking written all over her DNA. She is super attentive all along the process. Wines are wild fermented and looked after like babies.

The wine is juicy and fresh.
Running like a teenager not sitting down like an old person.
I look forward to see all the next wines they will make. — 2 years ago

Ripe fruits, creamy mouthfeel, full bodied with lovely acidity and rounded tannins. Not spicy for a Shiraz. — 7 years ago

At the Elderton Tasting and Dinner at the Downs Club hosted by co-owner Cameron Ashmead. I preferred this GSM to the Entry Level Shiraz with its sweet plummy earthy fruit and supple tannins. A crowd favourite on the night. — 8 years ago
