As Glaetzer's flagship wine, the Amon-Ra Shiraz has such a fan base that it even starred in a Japanese manga comic – The Drops of God! With such a celebrity status, this wine makes the perfect gift to impress! On the nose, dark plum and blackberry notes offset by hints of black pepper and wild forest herbs; powerful dark berry flavours accented with delicate spice and herb notes. Intense and mouth-filling with the balance, complexity and focus you can always expect from Amon-Ra. Deep purple upon release, but will evolve to a rich, dark red over time in bottle – where it will age beautifully, all the way through to 2045. Ranked 'Excellent' on Australia's Langton's Classification VII list.
