The Wine List 2005

The Wallace is a Shiraz/Cabernet/Grenache blend and it is less muscular than you might expect for a Barossa Valley wine. The plummy fruit is moderately spicy and surprisingly well mannered, finishing in a lithe, languid aftertaste. It is ready to drink now but will definitely hold well for five years to come, by which time I expect it'll be an absolute dream. Buy the Wallace when you are feeling mellow and you need a wine to match your mood.

Wine Regions of the World: In this crucial chapter I have taken my lifetime's tasting notes and whittled them down to the best bodegas, chateaux, domaines, estates, tenutas and wineries …every entry has had to fight for its place in this elite list... there is an entire world of wine to be discovered in Australia and this is the definitive list. The top producers in the (Barossa Valley) region are Glaetzer

Glaetzer was also one of the 'specially selected estates' that was chosen as 'truly outstanding and every wine in their entire portfolio is first class'.
