Amon-Ra Shiraz 2017

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.


Variety:
100% Shiraz

Vineyards:
Exceptional old vine fruit was sourced from the famed Ebenezer sub district at the
northern tip of the Barossa Valley. Vine age 50—130 years old. Yield 2 tonnes per
hectare.

Vintage Conditions:
A wet winter and spring coupled with cooler than average spring temperatures
resulted in slower yet balanced canopy development and healthy flowering and
fruit set. A mild summer with regular rainfall events followed allowing the fruit to
be in no rush to mature, perfect for consistent ripening. Harvest commenced a
few weeks later than recent years. The 2017 wines are of excellent quality
exhibiting purity and lift with firm tannins and exceptional length.

Vinification:
Fermented in 1 and 2 tonne open fermenters, hand plunged 3 times daily.
Matured for 16 months in 100% new oak hogshead barrels (95% French and 5%
American) and matured on lees to maintain fruit profile and animation. Bottled
unfiltered to ensure minimal intervention with the wine’s natural characteristics.

Tasting Notes
Colour: Brooding, vibrant black with bright purple hues.
Aroma: Absolute purity, black fruit aromas complemented by notes of fragrant
spice.
Palate: Seamless, rich and full-bodied with black plum flavours intermingling with
dried spice and finely balanced supple tannin. Impressive yet restrained.
Peak Drinking: A wine that will develop beautifully with long term cellaring over
decades.
