2017 LANGMEIL THE FREEDOM 1843 BAROSSA SHIRAZ

$145 / 2037

Langmeil has always believed the vines were planted in 1843, the first in the Barossa Valley, but there is some dispute about this. The wine was matured in French hogsheads and barriques (44% new) for 24 months. It’s an important wine, and a good one, but I wish the alcohol and oak had been lower. 15% alc.
