While the climate at Mount Langi Ghiran is marginal for grapegrowing, the spectacular setting creates a unique environment ideal for producing wines of distinctive character. The soils vary somewhat within the block which is an important contributor to the complexity of the wine. The finished wine is treated to an extended term in a selection of the finest oak barriques, coopered to winemaker Trevor Mast's specifications. The maturation of Langi Ghiran is always carefully timed to strike a balance of Shiraz fruit while offering a perfect measure of splendid oak.
