[SOLD-OUT] Glaetzer Amon Ra Shiraz 2017

"Amon-Ra Shiraz is an iconic wine that epitomises Ben Glaetzer’s passion to create wines that are full flavoured, multi layered and intense but still elegant, stylish and finely balanced.

---

Fermented in 1 and 2 tonne open fermenters, hand plunged 3 times daily. Matured for 16 months in 100% new oak hogshead barrels (95% French and 5% American) and matured on lees to maintain fruit profile and animation. Bottled unfiltered to ensure minimal intervention with the wine’s natural characteristics.

---

Brooding, vibrant black with bright purple hues. Absolute purity, black fruit aromas complemented by notes of fragrant spice. Seamless, rich and full-bodied with black plum flavours intermingling with dried spice and finely balanced supple tannin. Impressive yet restrained.

---

A wine that will develop beautifully with long term cellaring over decades".

"Mocha, sage, sweet black fruit, creamy toasty oak. Full bodied, thick tannin, saline, sweet cherry, lively acidity, grainy and ripe to close."
