What reviewers say
“14,5% 78% Shiraz, 22% Grenache RS 0,56 g/liter. Vine age: 50-80 years for the Shiraz. 50-100 years for the old Grenache. Since I totally fell in love with his other creations I just had to try this one as well, and I am so happy I did! Deep ruby-blue.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Overt dark cherry, cracked pepper and raspberry notes are lifted and fragrant on the nose. There is a dark fruit lushness to the palate which is counterbalanced by a spicy suppleness and focus of blackcurrant, blueberry and crushed spice provide depth and complexity.

2,030 Vivino reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 2,079 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track. 516 other reds from Australia form the cohort it is ranked inside.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.
- Global percentile
- Where Glaetzer Wallace (Shiraz - Grenache) lands against every wine we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — wines of the same type from the same country. A Chilean red is judged against Chilean reds, not against Champagne. Ranked against Red · Australia (517 wines).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each wine keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 2,030.
