Lake Breeze Bullant Cabernet Merlot 2020 (12 Bottles) Langhorne Creek

$204.00

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

The grapes for this wine were selected from old vines in the famous wine district of Langhorne Creek.

It has an amazing lifted bouquet of blackberries with a touch of mocha. The ageing in oak for 15 months has enhanced the mouth-feel of this wine, which is rich and smooth, and offers a lovely soft finish with polished tannins.

Best consumed over the next 3-4 years and will drink even more dangerously paired with roast lamb.

“… a wine with altogether superior definition of the blend, courtesy of clear blackcurrant fruit and fine-grained tannins.” James Halliday: Gold medal 2020 Royal Adelaide Wine Show class 29

While you’re enjoying this wine, spare a thought for our vineyard workers who once danced amongst the vines avoiding the menacing bull ants who resided there.

About Lake Breeze

Our Lake Breeze winery lies on the banks of the Bremer River and is surrounded by majestic river red gums and overlooks the 90 hectare (225 acre) Follett family vineyard. The vineyards are managed Tim Follett, whom Greg relies on to provide him with consistently outstanding fruit.

The varieties grown on the vineyard include cabernet sauvignon, shiraz and chardonnay, with smaller amounts of grenache, merlot, petit verdot, malbec and vermentino.

Lake Breeze selects only the best 40% of fruit from the older vines for its wines. The majority of the fruit used is carefully selected from old vines, between 50 and 55 years old, with the oldest vines being our Grenache, planted in 1932.

Our Lake Breeze cellar door has evolved further with contemporary function space, taking advantage of the stunning views across the vineyard from one of the best vantage points in the district. A great place to sit and enjoy a long lunch or the perfect venue to celebrate your special occasion.

Lake Breeze offers visitors to the region an extensive Langhorne Creek experience with cellar door tastings, lunch menu and accommodation at The Creek Cottage bed + breakfast.
