Grenache has long been held in high esteem by Barossa winemakers. Despite being overlooked elsewhere due to a workhorse history, it has hidden depths and great potential. Like a Rough Diamond, ordinary at first glance, its real beauty as a jewel is only revealed through cutting and polishing.

Life is for living, and the season that epitomises this is spring! Awakening from a winter slumber, the first days of spring bring budburst and a renewed enthusiasm for fun and frivolity. Our Spring Fever brings out the best in everyone and is worthy of a celebration with good friends and great food!

Old Barossa vignerons referred to their vineyards as gardens. The Three Gardens is a contemporary blend of Viognier, Marsanne and Roussanne – varieties which, while new to the Barossa, show great promise. The best characteristics of each variety have been combined to create a truly harmonious wine.

The old vines for this single vineyard dry Riesling are planted on a unique Eden Valley property affectionately known as Wattle Brae for the native trees that surround it. It is one of Langmeil’s cherished estate vineyards dedicated to capturing the best of region and variety.

The 1980s were truly tough times in the Barossa. Demand was down, and vines were being grubbed up. In 1985 Carl Lindner was unable to sell his premium Shiraz grapes, which he knew were far too good to let wither on the vine. Instead, he made a fortified wine and left it to mature in French oak puncheons, establishing a practice that continues to this day.Those difficult days combined with Carl’s foresight and inventiveness have laid the foundation for this truly unique wine.

Pure Eden is a single site wine, made from an Eden Valley vineyard planted by Charles Angas in the 1890s. Later owned by the Shiltons 1911 -1926; Meakins 1926-1929; Roeslers 1929-1961; Andretzkes 1961-2011 and now the Lindner family. This wine is a reward for these guardians’ efforts for more than one hundred years.

The Fifth Wave is Langmeil’s most treasured Old Vine Garden Grenache and is dedicated to the fifth generation of the Lindner family. The vineyard was planted in 1973 and serves as a call to arms to preserve, promote and protect the best of the Barossa as well as an oft-overlooked variety.

Orphan Bank is testament to Langmeil’s commitment to preserving old and rare Barossa vineyards. Ten rows of Shiraz planted pre-1860 were saved from the developer’s bulldozer and replanted alongside the original Langmeil vineyard on the banks of the North Para River. We called these ten rows the “Orphans”, but after 150 years they have a new home.

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 viticultural land which is the very foundation and forms the essence of this wine. A true taste of the Barossa.

Langmeil is home to The Freedom Shiraz, believed to be planted in 1843 by vigneron Christian Auricht. Escaping war and persecution in Prussia, Auricht travelled to his new homeland, finding freedom in the Barossa Valley. The original plantings still survive and are some of the oldest and rarest vines in the world.
