Lot 36
|
| Commissioned by George Fife Angas in 1836, German geologist and mineralogist, Johann Menge, made extensive inspections of the hills country of New Silesia, now better known as the Barossa. Having surveyed the region, he wrote a prophetic letter to his employer reporting that “your land is and will prove the kernel of this province”. | The Barossa is blessed with one of the most divers and unique landscapes of any fine wine region in the world. It is this Hallowed Ground which is fundamental to the Barossa's premium pedigree and rarefied reputation for grape growing and winemaking. | Pioneering Barossa vigneron, Christian Auricht, settled LOT-36, Langmeil Village in 1842, the place he would call home for the rest of his life. This bold Shiraz Cabernet celebrates the quintessential Australian blend and is a great example of the complexity and harmony these noble varieties can achieve. |

Now the site of our winery, the property in Langmeil village was originally settled by the Auricht family in 1842. Several generations later, working the mixed farm and vineyards became Selwin’s Lot in life. |
The Barossa has garnered a legendary reputation for the exceptional quality of its red wines from some of the world’s oldest vineyards. They were planted in the 1840s and are still cultivated by descendants of the original settlers today. |

The Barossa has garnered a legendary reputation for the exceptional quality of its red wines from some of the world’s oldest vineyards. They were planted in the 1840s and are still cultivated by descendants of the original settlers today. |
Speaking a local dialect known as ‘Barossa Deutsch’, a blend of German and English that embodies the history of the district, one of Langmeil’s growers Wally Krieg didn’t curse, just as his forbears didn’t, but in the heat of the vintage was often heard to mutter “Hangin’ Snakes!”. |
The original winery on the Langmeil Property was established in 1932. It was named Paradale, by the Hanisch family, due to the proximity to the North Para River. This river was the lifeblood of the village of Langmeil and helped the parish to prosper and flourish. |
