2021 Bleasdale Bremerview Shiraz Half Bottle 375ml, Langhorne Creek

Frank Potts created a system of locks and weirs to provide flood irrigation from inception in 1850, and Bleasdale's Bremerview vineyard still uses that system. Destemmed, open fermented, matured for 12 months in French puncheons (10% new). The wine is ridiculously good value at this price, with the warming gentle palate of Langhorne Creek: plum, dark berry fruit and just enough soft tannin. Gold medals Melbourne Royal Wine Awards and Rutherglen Wine Show ’22.

A true expression of Langhorne Creek Shiraz, this is a medium bodied wine showing intense and lifted spice aromas and dark berry fruit. The palate is long and silky with fine tannins, offering juicy plum and blackberry fruits, with notes of clove and pepper
