Sheppards Lane Shiraz 2018 (12 x 750mL) Langhorne Creek, SA

Description:

History

The “S” depicted on the front label represents the colours of vibrant and fertile soil found in South Australia’s Langhorne Creek wine region. Famous around the world, South Australia produces superb red wines and our Sheppards Lane Cabernet Sauvignon is no exception.

Region

Langhorne Creek has a cool maritime climate, notably cooler than McLaren Vale and the Barossa. This is due to a wind known as the Lake Doctor coming off Lake Alexandrina travelling across the Antarctic and Southern Ocean to the Langhorne Creek vines.

Soil throughout the region is predominantly deep, alluvial sandy loams, with patches of black, self-mulching clays.

Vintage

The 2018 Langhorne Creek vintage was excellent. Winter had above average rainfall, which reduced as the spring months wore on. Summer was reasonably dry and hot, with a couple of downpours helping canopy maintenance. Temperatures were warmer than average, however the summer breeze provided cool nights allowing flavour development. Cabernet Sauvignon was particularly strong, with moderate yields and excellent quality.
