Glaetzer Dixon 2019 Mon Pere Shiraz


Cool-climate Tasmanian shirazes are terrific mid-term cellaring prospects, but Nick Glaetzer at Glaetzer-Dixon Family Winemakers has done the work for you, re-releasing two outstanding back vintage examples of the Mon Père Shiraz. GDFW is celebrating 20 years in Tasmania with re-releases of 2018 and 2019 Mon Père. Both are excellent in different ways, but the 2019 is my pick right now. It comes from a cooler year and is more more aromatic and elegant with dark pepper and deli notes along with dark fruits. The 2018 ($90) is richer and rounder, so it is horses four courses. $85. https://www.gdfwinemakers.com/
