Wine Description
Named after the house-cooling breeze of our ‘Lake Doctor’. These winds arrive from the Great Southern Ocean direct from Antarctica, reviving our vines and vignerons alike in the peak of summer heat.
Drink with anything off the grill (preferably charcoal that is), and especially a second glass. Not just about the fruit, it’s earthy too and what we have always loved about Langhorne Creek is they produce cracker wines – consistently!
The result is a fabulously stylish Shiraz, one which offers Five Spice, juicy Plum Pudding flavour with rolling soft, fine-grained Cedar tannin.

WineOrbit.co.nz - Sam Kim, May 2022 - "Wonderfully ripe and gorgeously fragrant on the nose with blackberry, clove, tar and roasted nut aromas, followed by a flavoursome palate delivering excellent weight and intensity. Generous, silky and splendidly structured by polished tannins, making it fabulously drinkable."

winepilot.com, Ken Gargett, October 2022 - "... The wine is well balanced, supple of texture, full of richness of flavour, finishing with satiny tannins and excellent length. Love this wine now but it will surely improve over time. If you can hold off for three or four years, even better, but don’t be afraid to put a case in the cellar for a decade."
