‘…1999 Glaetzer The Bishop Shiraz…’

‘…Winemaker Colin Glaetzer shines with his own range of Barossa Wines. This is a classic Barossa Shiraz, from old dry-grown vines. A complex amalgam of dark cherry, pepper and leather aromas on the nose is complemented by subtle oak nuances. Its compact mouthful of fruit is held together by a firm, powdery grip of tannins that leaves a dry savoury impression. The Bishop is a beautifully, multifaceted shiraz, which makes for an ideal long-term cellaring proporsition - 10 years
