Glaetzer Anaperenna Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon is a seamless fusion of the two varieties. Voluptuous, opulent and yet refined, with a very long and satisfying finish. In 2018 the blend is 82% Shiraz (vines aged 30 to 100 years) and 18% Cabernet Sauvignon (vines of 30 to 130 years of age). Yield 2.5 tonnes per hectare.
Exceptional old-vine fruit was sourced from the famed Ebenezer sub-district at the northern tip of the Barossa Valley. Fermented in 1- and 2-tonne open fermenters, hand-plunged three 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. Alcohol 14.5%; pH 3.51; TA; 6.35 g/L.
The wine has dark purple hues framing a depth of black. The nose shows complex layers of black fruits with a slight herbal lift and notes of anise spice. On the palate, there are hints of dark cherry and dried spice with seamlessly integrated tannin. – Ben Glaetzer
