It is one of Australia's most historic winegrowing areas, with the oldest established wineries dating back to the mid-19th Century, and some plots of vines that have passed a century in age.

"This is the kind of mid-weight wine that never greatly impresses but nevertheless hums along in pleasantsatisfying fashion for years. It's the kind of wine it pays to be on good terms with.

Frank Potts, who founded Bleasdale in 1850, has a fascinating history. Born with sea legs, he joined the British Royal Navy at 9 years old and served on Lord Nelsons famous ship HMS Victory. He sailed around the world before landing in South Australia in 1836. He planted the first vines in 1858 and sold fruit to Thomas Hardy. He then expanded the vineyards in the 1860s. He was an innovator and a pioneer who played his role in establishing Australias wine industry. The Potts family still own Bleasdale and descendants Michael and Ben Potts handle the winemaking duties, along with Paul Hotker. They make wines from fruit grown on their 61 hectares of vineyards from varietals like Verdelho, Shiraz and Malbec in sparkling, table and fortified styles. Each parcel of fruit is carefully selected to produce a range of wines that can be enjoyed immediately, or cellared for that special occasion.

This specially produced classic Langhorne Creek Cabernet Sauvignon was estate grown and handcrafted using old vine fruit. A soft, full bodied wine which shows lovely ripe fruit characters with a hint of mocha and blackcurrant, it has generous mouthfill with lovely soft lingering tannins.
