LANGMEIL PURE EDEN SHIRAZ 2021

Pure Eden is a single site wine, made from an Eden Valley vineyard planted by Charles Angas in the 1890s. Later owned by the Shiltons 1911 -1926; Meakins 1926-1929; Roeslers 1929-1961; Andretzkes 1961-2011 and now the Lindner family, this wine is a reward of these guardians’ efforts over a hundred years.

Winery notes (2021 Vintage)
"An alluring bouquet of red and blue fruits leap from the glass with savoury herbs and hints of black olive, cedar, earthiness and white pepper. A medium to full-bodied wine with juicy Satsuma plum and raspberry fruits with plenty of velvety tannins adding structure and texture to the wine. Sweet and briary spices balance the juicy fruit with a subtle cedar note carrying through to the finish."

5 Stars & 97/100 Huon Hooke, The Real Review (2021 Vintage)
"Deep-ish red tinged with purple, not as saturated as some of its brethren, while the bouquet is all about a hot summer's day in a eucalypt forest. Earth, undergrowth, subtle gumleaf and mint, the palate beautifully concentrated and deep, dense and fleshy, with graphite tannins holding the structure firm and upright. Masses of supple tannins which are ripe and smooth textured. This is a big wine with real elegance and balance, hand in hand with its obvious depth and concentration."

18/20 JancisRobinson.com, September 2024 (2021 Vintage)
"Deep cherry red. Seductively sweet dark-red fruit. Pure cherry with a touch of smoky spice. Seems effortless. Violets emerge as it opens in the glass. Fabulous fruit. Firmly structured by both tannins and acidity and filled to the brim with gorgeous fruit. Juicy, finely tannic. Mouth-wateringly fresh. Long."
