2018 Ben Glaetzer Anaperenna (750ml)

Shiraz from Barossa, Australia

97WA
96AWC

For the 2018 Anaperenna Shiraz-Cabernet Sauvignon, Glaetzer blended in 18% Cabernet Sauvignon to give the wine increased fragrance and length. The nose is smoky, slightly herbal and marked by sweet cedar- and vanilla-tinged oak, but it also offers great cassis and blackberry fruit. Full-bodied, rich and concentrated, the flavors are kept nicely in check by fine-grained tannins. This wine has it all: terrific intensity, complexity, length and texture.

97 points, Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate (Jul 2020)

82% shiraz (30-100yo vines), 18% cabernet sauvignon (80-130yo vines) yielding 2.5t/ha, open-fermented, hand-plunged, matured for 16 months in new hogsheads (92% French, 8% American). Full-bodied, plum blackberry, supple tannin, good oak. Easy to argue this is too cheap.

96 points, James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion (Aug 2020)
