2012 Glaetzer Anaperenna Shiraz Cabernet

An outstanding example of this classic Australian blend.

The name Anaperenna takes its name from the Anna Perenna, the Roman goddess of the New Year. This superb blend is produced from 82% Shiraz and 18% Cabernet Sauvignon with maturation taking place in 100% new oak (92% French and 8% American) for a period of 16 months. Fruit is sourced from the Barossa sub region Ebenezer with the vines varying in age between 30-130 years old.

‘A magnificent blend of Shiraz and Cabernet with the rich opulent nature of the Shiraz perfectly tempered by the Cabernets structure and elegance.’

Impenetrable inky black core with dark crimson black hue. Pronounced aromas of liquorice, blackberries and ripe blackcurrant bound from the glass followed by some dark plum, dark chocolate, subtle vanillin cedar and spice. Powerful, explosive and quite luscious flavours of blackcurrant, blackberries and liquorice greet the front of the palate over a back drop of dark chocolate, cedar and spice. The wines decadence and richness balanced against a solid yet velvet like tannin structure. Superb depth with long persistent aftertaste of liquorice, blackberry, cassis and spicy cedar.
