Lay Me Down

Langmeil Valley Floor Shiraz

Amazing Value for a second-label Barossa, this is chockers with plum, vanilla and dark chocolate aromas, tinged with mint, anise and herb. It’s very smooth and more-ish for a youngster. Fruit sweet, ripe and rich, it has no lack of tannin but it’s supple and easy to enjoy. The 14.5% alcohol isn’t out of balance. Drink now to 2012 plus.

Colour:            Deep red crimson.

Aroma:            Plums and berry fruits with hints of liquorice and cassis and chocolaty vanillin oak characters

Palate:            Typical Barossa sweetness with the fruit. Vanilla and sweet spicy notes with a fantastic lingering mouth feel.
