Elderton Cabernet Sauvignon/Shiraz/Merlot Ode to Lorraine

Decanted two hours Dark fruit, a bit of cherry acidity cutting in, tannins with a fair bite. Worked reasonably well with the pork, but with the cheese,….. marvellous Only downside is that it doesn’t have the original neon pink label

Consistent to previous bottle. Flashy, rich fruit, some tannins lurk giving good backbone . Yet to peak.

Nose Dark fruits, musty leaves Palate sweet fruit, musty, with acidic, strong medium finish. drying, fine tannins Colour pale ruby Overall Long, acidic red, if a bit fruity on the nose and soft in tannins

Deep colour; jammy nose calm down with a couple of hours; lush fruits, low acidity, accessible & easy going. Needs time to fill out & shed puppy fat. Good potential.

Brilliant colour, short nose of earth an fruit. For a dry wine I found this to be on the sweet end. Price point was $57 CAD, as I was neutral on this wine I found it expensive and not worth the cost. If you can find it at 25 to 35$. good value.

Young, deep purple colour. Sweet black and purple fruit, vanilla, graphite and black currant pastilles on the nose. Soft, sweet fruit extract, decent acidity, long off dry fruit-filled finish. Lush, sweet dark fruit, black currant and some jammy bumbleberry fruit, blackberry, plum and black raspberry, easy drinking, supple, and yummy. Another 92 pointer.
