"In colour, the wine has an opaque purple core with a ruby red rim, which then transforms to garnet with time in bottle. It has a combination of black currants, blackberries and plum on the nose, and accompanied by fresh thyme, fennel and black pepper.
On the palate the Cabernet Sauvignon acts as a view finder to the centre of this generous Shiraz driven wine. A substantial palate is composed of the classic dark berries that typify Anaperenna. This is soft enough to savour on its own or can complement any intensely flavoured dish. It is a wine that wine mature extremely well with long term cellaring through to 2040 and beyond.
82% Shiraz / 18% Cabernet Sauvignon.
Glaetzer Anaperenna is a seamless fusion of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. It is exquisitely generous and yet refined, with a very long satisfying finish.
Exceptional old vine fruit that was sourced from the famed Ebenezer sub district at the northern tip of the Barossa Valley. Vine age 30–100-year-old Shiraz and 30–130-year-old Cabernet. Yield is 2.5 tonnes per hectare.
The wine is fermented in 1 and 2 tonne open fermenters, hand plunged 3 times daily. Matured for 16 months in 100% new oak hogshead barrels (92% French and 8% American) and matured on lees to maintain fruit profile and animation. Bottled unfiltered to ensure minimal intervention with the wine’s natural characteristics." - Ben Glaetzer
