Lauren Langfield may be a new wine label in Australia, but she is by no means new to the wine industry. After graduating from Lincoln University in Canterbury, Lauren worked in Marlborough and then Nelson before heading to Australia in 2011 where she worked as Winemaker for William Downie, then BK Wines before moving on to become the Manager and Chief Winemaker at Orbis Wines in McLaren Vale. Lauren established her own label in 2021 with fruit sourced from Gareth Belton of Gentle Folk Wines. 

In 2022, Lauren won 'Best New Act' in the Australian Young Gun of Wine Awards and a year later she won the main award, the 'Young Gun of Wine'. Since then her wines have captured the attention of a number of Australian Sommeliers, being listed at some of Australia's best restaurants and sold in most of the best wine stores too. Lauren is producing beautiful, well-made, fine wines from single varietals and single vineyards across South Australia and the quality and class of these wines is something everyone can enjoy.

Tasting Note:

"With depth and intensity of flavours, this year's Sauvignon Blanc is the most exceptional wine I have produced to date. Inspired by the Pouilly-Fume of the Loire, this Sauvignon is rich, round and layered- you'll find generous aromatics of beeswax, jasmine blossom, grapefruit and brioche. The cool nights and steep north facing, slopes of this Adelaide hills vineyard site produce exceptionally well flavoured Sauvignon Blanc. This is a wine with precision and depth, texture and mouth filling flavours- culminating in absolute drinking pleasure. 

Handpicked fruit was whole bunch pressed and fermented with wild yeast in French oak barriques for 8 months, with some battonage during malolactic conversion.
