Glaetzer
Bishop Barossa Valley Shiraz
Deep dark crimson, almost garnet. Medium intensity on the nose of talc covered red cherries. Nevertheless, phenomenal presentation on the palate. Very harmonious and polished and orderly increasing in intensity of top fruit, pure candied cherries. Nice size structure. Medium body of certain dusty texture. Deepness of flavor and structure from the third quarter acidity on to a sumptuous, subtle smokey and beautiful long ending. Certain 92 pts.

Oct 10th, 2016Inky dark color. Nose of blackberry, peppercorn and dust. Palate is well balanced with dark berry flavors, dirt, tobacco and very well integrated tannins.

Jun 15th, 2015Big surprise, most older Shiraz from Borossa doesn't hold up as this one has. Big eucalyptus influence, intense red fruit.
