German winemaker Colin Glaetzer established the Glaetzer wine label. Colin and his family had a rich history in the winemaking business and in 1888 they extended that knowledge to their Australian property. The family migrated and settled in the Barossa Valley wine country. There they began to produce classic Barossa valley estate grown wines. The Amon Ra label comes under the flagship Glaetzer label. Amon Ra is a powerful figure in Egyptian mythology. The god’s temple is considered the birthplace of commercial winemaking.
