Elderton Neil Ashmead Grand Tourer Shiraz 2019

This is a parcel in Greenock with rich blueberry and blackberry aromas and some gentle ginger, as well as blood orange and orange peel. The palate has a very sleek and freshly vivid feel and such attractive build of spice on the finish. This has power with grace and the French oak really works well, as does the aging on lees. Reminiscent of Penfolds RWT and certainly a clear winner in the value stakes. Drink over the next decade. Score – 93. (jamessuckling.com, Oct. 5, 2021)
