A fairly priced, top flight example of a Barossa Valley Shiraz, Elderton’s 2002 boasts a huge bouquet of creme de cassis, blackberries, asphalt, smoke, and earth. Muscular and full-bodied, with supple tannin, a silky texture, and a voluptuous finish, this gorgeous effort can be drunk now and over the next decade. Imported by USA Wine West, San Rafael, CA; tel.
