With imposing, rugged cliff faces casting shadows across ancient vine plantings, Mount Langi Ghiran is set against the dramatic backdrop of the Great Dividing Range in the Grampians region of Victoria. The Mount Langi Ghiran – Aboriginal for home of the yellow-tailed black cockatoo – vineyard is one of the most isolated and unique sites in Australian viticulture.

The winemaking team is very fortunate to have great grapes to turn into wines. The Old Block Shiraz planted in 1963, source to the iconic Langi Shiraz, forms some of the oldest and purest Shiraz clonal material anywhere in the world. This unique fruit perfectly matched with the cool climate of the Grampians and the ancient granitic soil of the vineyard, producing spicy pepper characteristics for which Langi has become renowned.

The Mount Lang Ghiran vineyard is truly unique, it’s ‘Old Block’ vineyard producing one of Australia’s most distinctive and distinguished wines, the Langi Shiraz. Our winemakers consider it a privilege to work with the amazing array of fruit delivered from the vines and are inspired to pour their talents into crafting wines that exceed expectations.

The raw elements of soil, climate and vine combine to create this unique vineyard. The weathered granite rockface and sedimentary soils, the cold prevailing winds forming off the Southern Ocean and the vinestock carried to this region by Swiss settlers in the 1800’s, all these elements play a critical role in producing the distinctive flavours of Mount Langi Ghiran wines.

Winemaking at Mount Langi Ghiran has undergone a generational shift into younger hands over the past ten years. This shift sees innovation, fresh ideas, and contemporary insight into the science of wine production. Each generation of winemakers to arrive at Mount Langi Ghiran has built upon foundations laid down by hands before them.
