2006 Glaetzer The Bishop Shiraz


Big black plums, blackberries, dark chocolate, coarse cinnamon and vanilla essence crystals.

The palate is dark and is brooding with heaps of blackberry liqueur and other dark fruits, much of which is still locked beneath the wines' young tannic sheath. Chunky chocolate, spicy cloves and a good dollop of mocha/vanilla cream smeared on top aswell. Big tannins, this one will last at least 7-10 years and won’t be showing what its made of until at least 2009-2010. Big, dark, Barossa style.

Rate: 93pts

Price:$25

Drink: 2009-2018+
