GLAETZER AMON RA 2021

Glaetzer “Amon-Ra” Shiraz 2021

Barossa Valley, South Australia, Australia

Glaetzer Amon-Ra 2021 is a bold and opulent expression of Barossa Valley Shiraz, renowned for its intensity, richness, and powerful structure.

The Wine

Sourced from old-vine Shiraz vineyards in the Barossa Valley, some dating back over a century, Amon-Ra represents the pinnacle of Glaetzer’s winemaking. The warm climate and ancient soils produce fruit of exceptional concentration and depth.

The 2021 vintage, considered outstanding, delivers both power and balance, with vibrant fruit, structure, and precision. Maturation in French oak enhances complexity while maintaining the wine’s bold character.

Tasting Notes

The nose is intense and expressive, with aromas of blackberry, plum, and dark cherry, layered with notes of dark chocolate, spice, licorice, and subtle smoky nuances.

On the palate, it is full-bodied and powerful, with a dense core of dark fruit supported by firm yet polished tannins. Layers of cocoa, sweet spice, and mineral undertones add depth and richness.

The finish is long, rich, and persistent, with lingering notes of fruit, spice, and refined oak.
