BN#191303 |
Ben Glaetzer has been touted as the most gifted Australian winemaker of the new generation...his father, uncle, two brothers and sister-in-law are all winemakers. And the whole family believes that great wines are made in the vineyard. Ancient dry-grown vineyards and minimal intervention are at the heart of this shared vision. By the age of 24, Ben had already made wine at Tyrrell's, Barossa Vintners and Glaetzer Wines. Ben made this wine for the family winery, Glaetzer Wines.
Wine Advocate
The 2005 Godolphin, a blend of 80% Shiraz (from 85-year-old vines) and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon (from 60-year-old vines), was aged in 100% new oak, primarily 300-liter French hogsheads. It represents a beautiful marriage of power and elegance, displaying an inky/blue/purple color as well as notions of black raspberries, blueberries, graphite, and sweet pain grille. Ripe, pure, and medium to full-bodied with sweet but noticeable tannin, it can be drunk now or cellared for 12-15 years.
Score: 93.
