Orphan Bank is 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 North Para River. We called these ten rows the “Orphans”, but after 150 years they have a new home

”A blend of shiraz from 87/13% Barossa/Eden Valleys, aged in French oak (47% new) for 25 months. Red plum, red cherry and blueberry fruits flow from the glass, along with hints of spice box, violets, dried herbs, bay leaf, cedar and red licorice. Pure and endearing on the palate with superfine tannin and a fine line, with just a touch of alcohol heat on the finish.”
