"A big, muscular red, dripping with peppery red berry and currant fruit, shaded with all sorts of mineral and dusky spice notes, all of which linger enticingly on the fine grained finish. Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon." -Wine Spectator
Named after the homestead, Bernoota is a blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. A full bodied wine exhibiting blackberry, spice and smoky oak characters.
Lake Breeze
The Follett family began farming at Langhorne Creek in 1880. The property was established by Arthur John Follett, the winemaker, Greg Folletts great, great, grandfather.
Ken and Marlene Follett and sons Roger, Greg and Tim currently manage and run the vineyard and winery.
Langhorne Creek
Langhorne Creek can easily be discovered on a scenic one hour drive from Adelaide or 45 minutes from Victor Harbor. The township rests between the foothills of the Mount Lofty Ranges and Lake Alexandrina.
Lake Breeze winery lies on the banks of the Bremer River and is surrounded by the majestic River Redgums and overlooks the 75 hectare Follet Family Vineyard.
Grapes in this premium wine area have an intense quality due to the location and unique natural influences.
Afternoon Lake Breezes create a surprisingly cool climate, which allows for a longer ripening period to enhance flavour retention.
The unique annual flooding of the Bremer River deposits deep rich alluvial soil.
This is ideal for the production of rich, full bodied red wines and white wines with exceptional flavour.
