Mount Langi Ghiran Langi Shiraz Grampians GI

Grampians GI, Australia

Flagship Grampians Shiraz from estate volcanic basalt at 350m. The benchmark for cool-climate Australian Shiraz: black pepper, violet, blueberry, smoked meat, and olive with silky tannins. Lighter than Barossa — more Rhône-like in weight and spice. Whole-bunch inclusion; 16 months in French oak (20% new). 15–20 year ageing potential.
