Description

The Neil Ashmead Grand Tourer Shiraz is a tribute to Elderton founder Neil Ashmead—a wine built on character, drive, and a love for great Barossa red wine. Sourced from exceptional vineyard sites across the Barossa Valley, the 2023 vintage delivers quintessential regional spice balanced by bright fruit energy and seamless structure.

  • Tasting Notes: Lifted aromas of brambly dark fruit, ripe cherry, and savory spices. The palate is creamy and seamless, showing rich berry layers framed by lively, powdery tannins and a long, savory finish.

  • Style: Medium-to-full-bodied, rich, and structured Barossa Shiraz.

  • Cellaring Potential: Excellent drinking upon release with strong cellaring potential over the next 10–12+ years.

  • Format: 6 x 750mL bottles ($41.66/bottle equivalent)

Special Vintage Offer: Available for $250 per 6-pack (RRP $390). Final allocation of the 2023 vintage before transitioning to the next release.

Maker Notes

2023 will be remembered as a complete change from the hot and dry weather we have had for the past few vintages. With ample winter rainfall, and run off leaving dams full for the first time in several years, we were excited at the new lease of life for our vineyards leading into the season. The cooler ripening period allowed for grapes to stay longer on the vine, especially at Greenock, and the delicate flavours and long, subtle tannin profile is a result of this. Whole bunch inclusion adds a spicy edge to the aromatic profile whilst ensuring the tannins are vibrant and juicy. We pressed straight to barrel for a little barrel fermentation followed by time on lees for malolactic fermentation. Further maturation with stirring ensured freshness was preserved. - Jules Ashmead & Brock Harrison
