Glaetzer Wines Wallace Shiraz Grenache 2022 (1x75cl)
Estate
Glaetzer Wines was founded by the Glaetzer family in 1995 and is made today by Ben Glaetzer. James Halliday Five Red Star (top 2%). The estate's flagship, Amon-Ra, is one of Australia's recognised cult wines.
Region
Barossa Valley — warm, dry, and home to some of the oldest Shiraz and Grenache vines on earth.
Variety & Style
Shiraz supplies structure and dark fruit; Grenache adds red fruit and a softer mouthfeel. In the Barossa this pairing is traditional, and its purpose is to make the wine approachable earlier without losing weight. Wallace sits in the estate's drink-now tier, with restrained oak.
What to Expect
This is the entry point to Glaetzer, not Amon-Ra. Its strength is completeness and consistency at the price — not complexity or cellaring. Buy it to drink within two or three years.
Serving
16–18°C, open 30 minutes ahead. Roast meats, short rib, lamb, robustly flavoured Chinese dishes.
