Village RED wines
This collection is Langmeil's purist representation of premium regional wines which concentrate on those varieties that the Barossa does best. By supporting over twenty-five local Barossa family growers, some of which are fifth and sixth generation Barossa growers that hail from many of the varied 'Villages' and sub-regions, we can in turn create regional Barossa blends that provide the winemaking team a cross section of developed flavour profiles to showcase.
Malbec is a historic variety originally native to south-west France, whose centre of gravity moved to the southern hemisphere in the late twentieth century. It is renowned for its age worthy, deeply coloured rich and smooth wines. Here in the Barossa it makes a real Black Beauty of a wine.

While the Barossa is renowned for its German heritage there is an important Italian influence too. When the Della Mina family, who emigrated to South Australia from northern Italy in the 1930s, were joined in marriage to the Lindner family, a strong and enduring bond was forged based on a mutual love of family, farming, food and wine.

Hiding under the Mourvédre alias, Mataro has too often been relegated to the rank of a ‘blends only’ varietal. The time for a Resurrection is now. Driven by the new generation of Barossa winemakers, Mataro is once again taking its place as a single varietal of regional significance.

Old Barossa vignerons referred to their vineyards as gardens. The Three Gardens is a contemporary blend of Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro, varieties grown in the Barossa since the 1840s. The best qualities of each grape have been selected to create this unique premium red blend.
In 1842 a 32 year old Blacksmith, Christian Auricht, arrived from Prussia with his wife and four children. He settled in the new hamlet of Langmeil and built a blacksmith shop in what became the village’s trading area. His original shop remains a feature of the winery’s heritage today.
The Barossa is famous for its viticulture, history and winemaking dating back to the 1840s. At its heart is the Valley Floor, a highly-prized strip of prime viticultural land which is the very foundation and forms the essence of this wine. A true taste of the Barossa.
