Deep crimson in colour, this Barossa Shiraz opens with bold aromas of dark plum, blackberry and black cherry, layered with liquorice, pepper and subtle spice. The palate is rich and full-bodied, showing dense dark fruit, cocoa and savoury oak, supported by fine, firm tannins. Long, powerful and structured finish.

Huon Hooke - The Real Review
Deep colour and a meaty/spicy/toasty and roast meat bouquet that is quite complex already. Some floral and regional dried herb notes, hinting at thyme and oregano. The wine is full bodied and concentrated, with ample firm tannins supplying structure and ageing potential. A serious red with loads of character.

Dave Brookes - Halliday Wine Companion
Deep, purple-splashed crimson with notes of dark blackberry and ripe dark plums. Hints of baking spices, sage, black pepper, cassis, dark chocolate and graphite. There's a cassis-like richness to the fruit flow, densely packed granitic tannins and a chocolatey tide on the deep, black-fruited finish.

Jeni Port - Winepilot
Displays its Eden Valley strengths straight up; a cool climate, firm, structural component, fine-edged tannins, expressive red and blue fruits and Aussie bush notes. Not sure about the Biblical reference in the name (Elijah is often associated with the prophet) but it’s got a lot going for it. Shows red fruits, spice, eucalyptus, chocolate aromas loaded in lifted spices. Fine, sinewy tannins assist in the clean, brisk flow of flavour across the palate and in the wine’s structure. The growing season in 2020 was noted for its hot, dry conditions that led to reduced yields. The result is some impressive fruit concentration led by red fruits, plum and spice with an added layer of briar and earth. Impressive on a number of levels.

A delicious and bright syrah with purple fruits, subtle black pepper and some dried flowers. Medium body. Fine tannins and a medium fruity finish.
