He has travelled and worked extensively throughout the worlds wine regions and is now based in the Barossa Valley where he makes the Glaetzer family wines with his father, Colin.. The 2006 Cabernet was aged for 14 months in used French and American oak. Purple-colored, it delivers a fragrant nose of vanilla, cedar, spice box, tobacco, and black currants. This leads to a medium-bodied, elegantly styled Cabernet with concentrated black fruit flavors, a firm structure, and a long finish. Drink it over the next 4-5 years. It is an outstanding value.-Jay Miller Wine Advocate 91 Points. Label Alcohol: 14.5%Total Acidity: 7.1g/l PH: 3.26Residual sugar: 0.6g/l
