When Frank Potts established Bleasdale on the Langhorne Creek floodplain in 1850, he built a system of locks and weirs to capture and use floodwaters from the Bremer River to irrigate his vines. Many of Langhorne Creek’s vineyards, including Bleasdale’s Bremerview vineyard, still rely on his original flood irrigation system that comes into operation when the river naturally overflows to the vineyards planted along its banks. A true expression of Langhorne Creek Shiraz, this is a medium bodied wine showing intense lifted spice aromas and dark berry fruit. The palate is long and silky with fine tannins, offering juicy plum and blackberry fruits, with notes of clove and pepper.
This wine rated 90 Points in the 2022 Halliday Wine Companion
“Big-value shiraz here – dark fruits and an Asian spice cabinet thrown in, with pepper as well. Plenty of well-toned muscle on the mid palate.” – Tony Love
