Tasting Notes

Bethany Shiraz 1997 is a distinguished Barossa Valley red sourced from some of the region’s finest parcels and preserved in a premium private cellar. With fruit from Bethany’s historic vineyards, this mature Shiraz reflects the area’s renowned combination of richness, depth and freshness.

Expect the typical regional fruit power associated with Barossa Shiraz, supported by an underlying freshness that brings balance and poise. The 1997 vintage offers an opportunity to experience a well-aged Australian red with developed character and cellar-aged complexity.

Bethany Wines holds a special place in the Barossa’s winemaking story. The Schrapel family arrived from Silesia in 1844 and established the Barossa’s first settlement at Bethany. In 1852, Johann Gottlob Schrapel planted the region’s first vineyard from European cuttings, laying the foundation for a family legacy closely connected with the area’s oldest vines and enduring wine culture.

A cellar-worthy Barossa Shiraz with heritage, regional expression and impressive provenance.

About this Wine

South Australia

If you like Australian wine, then you probably like South Australia wine. The rich reds produced there put Australia on the wine-making map of the world. With over 40% of the countries vineyards, South Australia can rightfully call itself the wine state.

Wines are produced in several regions throughout the state, though many are naturally grouped together, like Barossa and Eden Valleys, only 15 minutes apart. They include such regions as Barossa Valley, Clare Valley, Eden Valley, Coonawarra, Adelaide Hills, Kangaroo Island, Langhorne Creek, The Limestone Coast, McLaren Vale and Wrattonbully to name but a few!

Barossa Valley boasts some of the oldest vines in Australia dating back to 1843 and produces some of the world's finest Shiraz, whilst the 'terra rossa' soils of Coonawarra is most suited to producing outstanding Cabernet Sauvignons. If you're a fan of Riesling, Clare Valley is a great place to explore and for a Maritime climate not dissimilar to parts of the Italian coastline, seek out the wines from McLaren Vale.
