2017 Blacksmith Cabernet Sauvignon Six Pack
In 1842 a 32-year-old Blacksmith, Christian Auricht, arrived from Prussia with his wife and four children. He settled in the new village of Langmeil and established a forge in what was to become a thriving trading post. His original smithy remains to this day and is a feature of the winery’s heritage setting.

"These are wines of great historical significance, not to mention quality, and should occupy a lofty place in the pantheon of Australian wine."
