About the wine
Super-indulgent, 8-year-aged Shiraz with incredible pedigree and the medals to back it up
-
This is something a little different to your classic Aussie ripper, Glenn’s Lagoon View Shiraz is a high-quality, aged red with complex flavours in more of a French-style.
-
It’s a super-premium drop, meticulously made from prime single estate fruit and aged in posh French and American oak to impart a smooth texture and tantalising hints of oak spice. It’s full-bodied with an irresistible scent of dark forest berries and cinnamon, followed by waves of dark plum and ripe black cherry flavours, with a hint of pepper.
-
You’d be hard-pushed to find fine, award-winning, aged wines like this gem of a Shiraz at this price anywhere. Thankfully, because you’re an Angel, you get it for a snip.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Glenn Eberbach
-
Glenn’s passion for wine was sparked at the tender age of 10, after he was put in charge of bottle-washing at his school’s annual wine fundraiser. All grown up, and having honed his craft at top-ranking Yarra Valley wineries - followed by stints in Italy, then King Valley and Rutherglen, Oz - he’s now got over 20 years’ experience under his belt, and since 2017 makes award-winning wines as chief winemaker at the sweeping Trifon Estate in Goulburn Valley, Victoria.
-
Goulburn Valley is a goldmine for premium Aussie wines and Glenn has access to some of the very best fruit at his Lagoon View vineyards. His grapes here benefit from nutrient-rich soils, pure spring water, and a cool (for Australia) climate, which allows him to produce elegant and complex wines that are full to the brim with fruit.
-
Glenn’s one of a number of Aussie winemakers who were hit hard by Chinese tariffs, leaving him with loads of premium nectar that might’ve gone to waste. Thankfully, our mates at Naked Australia came to the rescue, and now that he’s part of the Naked family, you get to enjoy his top-shelf wines too.
