Langmeil Orphan Bank Shiraz 2022 (6 Bottles) Barossa Valley, Australia

$350.00

Langmeil Orphan Bank Shiraz 2022 from Langmeil Winery in the Barossa Valley is a powerful yet polished expression of old-vine Barossa shiraz. The nose opens with blackberry, plum and blueberry compote, supported by hints of cocoa, cedar and warm spice. The palate is lush and full-bodied, delivering deep black fruit framed by supple tannins and a gentle mineral thread that brings lift and definition. Subtle mocha and vanilla notes from well-judged oak add complexity without overwhelming the fruit. The finish is long, smooth and confidently structured, offering both immediate appeal and cellaring promise for eight to ten years. No published critic scores were available at the time of review.

Description

About Langmeil Wines

Today, the winery grounds form a captivating pocket of Australian history, now owned by the Lindner family, whose own mark on the Barossa landscape spans six-generations of regional farming, food, community, and now wine.
Recognising the rarity of this shiraz vineyard, the site was dedicated to Auricht (who fled his native Prussia to escape religious persecution) and named Freedom, from which family winemaker Paul Lindner crafts ‘The Freedom 1843’ Shiraz – a single vineyard, old vine wine, which holds the honor of ‘Excellent’ in the Langton’s Fine Wine Classification VI.

“Black fruit, liquorice, baking spices, toasty oak, even some perfume. It’s full-bodied, black fruits, again that juicy liquorice character, balanced acidity though leaning towards a gentle tang, dense tightly-knit tannin, some tobacco and earthiness, closing with a finish of excellent length. Has depth and impact, though doesn’t lurch into the clumsy zone. Very good.
