A celebration of a Barossa classic, this beautiful yet robust Glaetzer Bishop Shiraz has layers upon layers of "too many fruits to name"! Paying tribute to winemaker Ben's mother (Bishop being her maiden name), this crimson purple beauty offers up subtle but plentiful aromas of black cherry and dried spice goodness. Juicy and luscious with flavours of every imaginable berry, black cherry, olive and black pepper! Elegantly structured with bright, balanced tannins and a long finish. Great for drinking now, but this wine will also benefit from up to 10-15 years in the cellar – try it with perfectly roasted duck or boeuf bourguignon for date night at home!
