Fermentation took place in small open fermenters, with extended maceration employed to build fine, supple tannins and an approachable structure from an early age. The wine was matured for 16 months in French oak hogsheads, comprising 40% new oak and 60% seasoned barrels, adding complexity without overshadowing the fruit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2023 VINTAGE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2023 Barossa Valley vintage was shaped by abundant spring rainfall, which replenished soil moisture before a dry, mild summer free from heatwaves. A long, leisurely growing season and late harvest extending beyond Easter allowed the fruit to achieve exceptional flavour development while retaining freshness and balance. The result is a wine of vibrant colour, purity and effortless intensity. TASTING NOTE Deep magenta with a vibrant crimson rim, the bouquet reveals layers of fresh plum, damson and blackberry compote, lifted by notes of cracked black pepper, nutmeg and cardamom. The palate is bright, energetic and beautifully balanced, echoing the dark fruit profile while adding fresh blackberry, anise and dark chocolate. Silky tannins and lively acidity carry the wine to a long, polished finish, making it equally rewarding in its youth or after extended cellaring. – Ben Glaetzes finish where both variet\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Glaetzer","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle","offer_id":28794701379,"sku":"CELGLBISH16","price":38.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1421\/5622\/products\/bishop_bottleshot-400x1614_46206003-02bc-4de6-a5a8-598a2c9af18c.jpg?v=1700735374","url":"https:\/\/worldwine.com.au\/products\/glaetzer-bishop-shiraz-2023","provider":"World Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
