Langmeil The Orphan Bank Shiraz 2019
Orphan Bank is a testament to Langmeil’s commitment to preserving old and rare Barossa vineyards. Ten rows of Shiraz planted pre-1860 were saved from the developer’s bulldozer and replanted alongside the original Langmeil vineyard on the banks of the River Para. Langmeil called these ten rows the “Orphans” but after 150 years they have a new home.
