There is never an issue with the depth of red wine colour achieved in Langhorne Creek. Bremerview delivers in the deepest of eye-catching purples. Some lovely aromatics follow on the bouquet in violet and lilac with backing spices, black fruits and plum. It’s a fresh and fruit-forward kind of Shiraz which will be rewarded with early drinking . . . or not. Bremerview is versatile enough to meet the needs of the drink-now gen as well as the wait-and-see gen. It’s your call. Easy going on the palate dressed in red and black fruits, tilled earth, vanilla and woodsy spice, nicely integrated in earthy tannins, all working together hard to deliver plenty of varietal impact. And it’s delicious.
