Elderton Ashmead Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 Domaine Collotte green apple slushy and jasmineFrom a single parcel in the Nuriootpa Vineyard, this has aromas of currants, violets, spiced bread and blueberries as well as cassis and mulberries. Some earthy notes, too. The palate has a very focused core of black cherries, dark plums and blueberries and smooth, even tannin texture. Supple and long. Medium to full bodied and very drinkable. 93 Pts James Suckling
