Description
Dark red with garnet edges. Black cherries, dried spice and blackcurrant. Plush yet focused, ripe tannins provide structure to the flavors of blackberry and plum.
Like all of the Glaetzer bottlings tasted this year, the fruit comes from the Ebenezer subregion in the northern reaches of the Barossa Valley. The 2017 Bishop Shiraz combines blueberry and boysenberry fruit on the nose, and flavors from the fruit flow easily across the palate, picking up hints of raspberries and baking spices. It’s medium to full-bodied, supple and juicy, with a long, mouthwatering finish.
91 Points Robert Parkers Wine Advocate
A rich shiraz with plenty of ripe blackberry and plum aromas and flavors, as well as baking spices. Quite long, plush and assertive tannins.

“Tangy berry and plum flavors mingle with details of cream soda, spice, herb and cedar. Smooth and juicy on an easy-drinking, fresh frame. Drink now. 2,000 cases made, 1,000 cases imported.” — MW
