Concentrated yet supple, with the fresh acidity the cool Grampians site preserves and mouth-coating tannins that carry a very long finish. Shiraz 100%.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe producer\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMount Langi Ghiran takes its name from the Aboriginal for 'home of the yellow tailed black cockatoo' and sits against the dramatic backdrop of the Great Dividing Range in the Grampians. The vineyard lies at 350 metres between Mount Langi Ghiran and Mount Cole, where cold air tumbling off the peaks shortens autumn sunshine hours and stretches ripening; mountain erosion has left granite sands over sedimentary red clay loam, a profile that moderates the vigour of the Shiraz vine and gives the subtle peppery spice the estate is known for. Fermentation was 70% whole-berry and 30% whole-bunch with natural yeasts in small open-top fermenters, two to three weeks on skins, followed by 18 months in French oak barriques, 40% of them new. The 2020 season was cool and drawn out with below-average yields, and there was too little late sunshine to make the flagship Langi Shiraz, so a small quantity of Mast was made from House Block 4 fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFood and drinking\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe at 16-18C, with an hour in a decanter. Good with grilled lamb, peppered rib of beef, slow-cooked short rib or a mature farmhouse cheddar. Drinking well now and over the next ten to fifteen years. Sealed under screwcap. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mount Langi Ghiran","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58475978064255,"sku":"HNW-5440220A","price":44.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/4192\/4998\/files\/5440220A.jpg?v=1789918527","url":"https:\/\/www.edkawines.com\/products\/2020-shiraz-mast-mount-langi-ghiran","provider":"Edka Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
