Bleasdale Bremerview Langhorne Creek Shiraz 2023
Red Wine from Australia - South Australia
A true expression of Langhorne Creek shiraz, Bleasdale’s Bremerview 2023 greets you with lifted spice and vibrant dark berry fruit, recalling juicy blackberries, plums and a hint of pepper and clove. The palate is medium-bodied yet long and silky, carried by fine-grained tannins that frame generous plum and blackberry flavours. Subtle oak provides depth without distracting from the purity of the fruit, while a lively spicy lift keeps the finish fresh and moreish. There is a brightness and tangy juiciness that makes this wine immediately appealing, but its balance and structure suggest it will continue to evolve gracefully over the next several years. At 13.5% alcohol, it offers plenty of flavour without heaviness, making it both a versatile table wine and an elegant example of Langhorne Creek’s ability to produce shiraz with vibrancy, charm and drinkability.

Bleasdale Vineyards
The historic Bleasdale vineyards were founded in 1850 by Frank Potts, who arrived in South Australia from Portsmouth, England in 1836. Potts spotted the potential of the rich alluvial soils of the area and the impact of the Bremer River on which the isolated, tiny town of Langhorne Creek region depends for flood irrigation. His sons and grandsons operated and built up the winery, and even today the fourth and fifth generation of the Potts family are still involved in the winemaking and running of the winery. Their property, much of which enjoys conservation status, offers a fascinating insight into the history of Australia’s early settlers.
The cellars at Bleasdale are a national monument, constructed from red gumwood and limestone, and some of the original winemaking equipment is still occasionally used. Nevertheless, the emphasis here is on using modern technology to produce wines of consistently high quality. Until the 1990s much of the region’s fruit went into multi-regional blends and it was only when a group of long-term family growers – including Bleasdale – started promoting 100% Langhorne Creek wines that the region became recognised in its own right.
