About this Wine

The 2021 Eligo opens with attractive waves of black fruit, accented by hints of anise, clove, and florals. Richly textured, the palate reveals a multitude of tightly packed dark fruit layers—deep, pure-fruited, and commanding—complemented by subtle notes of ironstone and licorice. Integrated, chocolatey tannins provide a long, harmonious finish. While seductive in its primary fruited youth, this wine will reward at least five years of cellaring and promises to age gracefully for over two decades.

Barossa Valley Wine

The Barossa Valley wine region has historically and currently still is one of Australia's most prestigious premium wine producing regions. Located just 60km north east of Adelaide city centre, the climate there is very hot and dry which is perfect for the big bold reds the area is famous for.

A straight Shiraz is what Barossa is most well known for, however Rhone blends, such as Shiraz Cabernet are also very popular. While much less prevalent, white wines (Chardonnay, Riesling, Semillon) are planted on the higher altitude hillsides where the ocean breeze cools temperatures down to a level suitable for producing these varieties as well.

Some of Australia's earliest Shiraz plantings can be found here dating as far back as the 1850's. While not always a guarantee of quality, it might be worth seeking out and trying one of the region's "old vine shiraz" if you haven't yet.

Critic reviews

Decanter – Hugely concentrated with tiers of prune, plum and raspberry jam shrouded in finely toasted oak and a delectable crunch of blueberry texture lining the palate.
