    2022 Glaetzer 'AMON-Ra' Shiraz

    • $95.00

    Amon-Ra Shiraz is an iconic wine that epitomises Ben Glaetzer’s passion to create wines that are full flavoured, multi layered and intense but still elegant, stylish and finely balanced.

    In Egyptian mythology, Amon-Ra is considered to be the king of all gods. The temple of Amon-Ra was believed to be the first temple to ever plant a monoculture vineyard to produce wine for the citizens of the temple.

    The eye on front of the label is the all-seeing eye of Horus or wedjat ("whole one") - a powerful Egyptian symbol of protection. It is represented as a figure with six parts, corresponding to what Egyptians regarded as the six senses; touch, taste, hearing, sight, smell and thought.

    Ben created Amon-Ra Shiraz to appeal to all these six senses.

    Tasting Notes

    Colour: Opaque purple core with an almost luminous quality at the rim

    Aroma: Blackberry notes are offset by hints of black pepper and cardamom.

    Palate: Rich and delightful mix power and delicacy. Dark fruit notes abound, counterpoised by elegant spice and herb notes. It will age as long as anyone could wish.

    Peak Drinking: A wine that will develop beautifully with long term cellaring through to 2050.

    Alcohol 15%
