Estate Vineyard and Specialist Growers Langhorne Creek, South Australia.

When Frank Potts established Bleasdale on the Langhorne Creek floodplain in 1850, he built a system of locks and weirs to capture and use floodwaters from the Bremer River to irrigate his vines. Many of Langhorne Creek’s vineyards, including Bleasdale’s Bremerview vineyard, still rely on his original flood irrigation system that comes into operation when the river naturally overflows to the vineyards planted along its banks.

De-stemmed to open fermenters, approx 15% whole berry, for a short soak. Fermentation peak at 30°C with up to 4 pump overs per day, reducing towards the end of ferment. Drained & pressed at dryness after 9 to 12 days on skins, block dependant, settled for 24 hours before racking to oak and tank for MLF. Blocks kept separate before blending at 12 months. 12 months new (10%) and seasoned French oak puncheons.
