Glaetzer Shiraz 2004

Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaWinemaker Ben Glaetzer says 2004 was a magic vintage and his Barossa shiraz confirms that. I love the cool savoury threads that punctuate this sleek, rich flavourful red that has all the hallmarks of low yield vines (less than two tons to the acre shiraz). It almost tastes food friendly. Look for sweet black fruit and mocha licorice notes throughout. Big rich dense and powerful, as you might expect form Barossa, but with structure and harmony. Impressive newcomer in these parts that really moves the mark up.Tasted: 17 November 2005Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
