Highlights
  • Varietal percentages: 100% Shiraz
  • Vineyard(s): Mount Langi Estate Vineyard
  • Vineyard Notes: Nestled in the foothills of the 400-million-year-old granite massif is Mount Langi Ghiran. Over time, the forces of Mother Nature have cast rock fragments to the base of the mountain creating a formation we know as Talus. Mount Langi Estate with 75% of the fruit sourced from blocks planted by Trevor Mast from cuttings of Langi's famous, "Old Block". Cellar Block East; Contour Block; Dam South & House Block 4. 25% from Old Block. Vines in the new blocks are now between 15-25 years of age and at their peak. Old Block vines, now 50 years old, produce less fruit but what is harvested provides a deep concentration of flavours.
