Langmeil Blacksmith Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
Country/Region of Origin: Australia

Region: Australia, Barossa Valley

Grape variety: Cabernet Sauvignon

Background: 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.

Tasting notes: Medium to deep crimson with purple hues. A rich and lifted nose of blueberry, blackcurrant and black olive, with a hint of cedar, liquorice and sweet spices adding to the complexity. Bright and rich berry fruits coat the palate and combine with brambly spice, hints of black olive and liquorice. Full-bodied with velvety, fine-grained tannins adding to the structure which flows through the long, fruity and spicy finish.
