Whilst the Barossa is synonymous with full-bodied Shiraz, its Cabernet Sauvignon can equally produce wines of intense flavour and body. This is such a wine. With a full middle palate, showing good varietal Cabernet character, superbly structured and displaying fine tannins. This wine may be enjoyed now but will develop further in the bottle for at least another ten years.

Langmeil dry grows many of its own vineyards and encourages its growers to do the same. Because the vines are not irrigated, they search for water and push their roots deep into the ground. The result is fruit of outstanding quality, with depth, colour and flavour not found in other irrigated vines. Australia is the driest continent in the world and South Australia, the state in which the Barossa is located, is the driest state of Australia. Yet it is possible to produce outstanding wine from dry grown vines.
