The vineyards are located in the Ebenezer sub-region, known for its ancient soils and low-yielding vines. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including open fermentation and basket pressing, resulting in a full-bodied and complex wine. The Shiraz provides rich and spicy notes, while the Grenache adds a soft and fruity character. Glaetzer Wallace is a well-balanced wine with a long and smooth finish, making it a perfect choice for those who enjoy bold and flavorful red wines.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Glaetzer Wallace blend is a bold and complex expression of Shiraz and Grenache.The Shiraz provides dark fruit and spice on the nose, while the Grenache brings bright notes of ripe raspberry and strawberry. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and lush, with a hint of pepper, dark chocolate, and smoky oak. The finish is long and smooth. This is an excellent expression of Barossa Valley winemaking.
