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! Aromas of blood plum with hints of dark cherry and dried garden herbs; earthy spice complements brooding dark fruit flavours on the palate. Mouth-coating yet with the balance, finesse and elegance that epitomises Amon-Ra. Deep purple in its youth but lovely dark red hue with maturation, this is a wine that will develop beautifully with long cellaring – all the way through to 2045. Ranked 'Excellent' on Australia's Langton's Classification VII list.
