- A rich wine, voluptuous and juicy, with aromas of blackberries and plums, layered with chocolate mint and smoky oak. The palate encompasses all of the trademark Langhorne Creek fruit sweetness and soft tannins. A definitive example of this classic blend.
Fruit selection was paramount with only the best blocks being retained for the Lake Breeze label and only the best rows of these blocks on a lot of occasions. The grapes were crushed to small open-top tanks for fermentation, which took place on the skins over seven to 10 days. The wine was then pressed straight to new and used French and American oak barriques to complete fermentation, followed by 20 months maturation. The wine was bottled without fining or filtration.

| Winery | The grapes were harvested from 40 to 50-year old vines, which produce richly flavoured, concentrated berries. All the vines are on their own rootstocks and the soils are generally alluvial sandy loams with some over a clay base. This dry region, situated at the bottom of the Murray River, is irrigated by a weir floodgate system, and when flooded it has been known for a canoeist to be spotted among the vineyards! The vineyards are surrounded by striking, historically important gum trees that still bear the holes that were once dug out by the Aboriginal Australians to carve into canoes to sail up the river. Perfectly apt for this wine, as 'Bernoota' means "camp among the gum trees". |
