93 Points from Huon Hooke in The Age Wine Guide: "Full-bodied, velvet textured wine with dark plum and blackberry aromas and flavour. Great Value. Will reward some ageing (14.5 percent alcohol; screw cap). Cellar a year or two then drink within 18 years."
Love bigger bolder wines from over in WA - This is another sensation, Beautifully weighted, fleshy and mouth filling enhanced with lovely French oak character. The perfect winter warmer to enjoy with roasted red meats and casseroles! Thier best Shiraz from the most mature vines on Langton vineyard are selected for this wine. It was fermented in separate batches at moderate temperatures with regular pump overs to maximise the colour and flavour extracted. Aged in French oak, 25% new, for 16 months before bottling. With the depth of fruit flavour the 2014 Two Steps be certainly be enjoyed now with a full flavoured meal though it will also continue to improve with further bottle age; 4 - 8 years or so.
Awards and Accolades
2012 Vintage: 96 Points - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion "The estate-owned Langton Vineyard provides high quality shiraz, this wine coming from the best blocks. Deep crimson-purple, its bouquet sets the scene with its precocious display of black fruits, spice, pepper and cedary French oak all in tune; the mouthfeel is satin smooth and precise, yet also sees touches of licorice adding to the flavour profile."
