A food-friendly wine, Glaetzer Shiraz is a vibrant brick-red colour with a touch of purple hue. The nose displays masses of briary fruit, plums, cassis and cedar. Additional essence of sweet consomme, warm raspberry odours, five spice and loam. The palate is an intense combination of luscious blackberry fruit, supple mature tannin enveloped by flavours of black pepper and spice. There's copious quantities of melted asphalt intermixed with blackberry liqueur and cassis, smoke, leather and earth. A magnificent example of ancient vine, dry-grown Barossa Shiraz. Will cellar and improve for 10 - 15 years.
