Established in 1969, Mount Langi Ghiran, the Aboriginal home of the yellow-tailed black cockatoo, is set amongst the dramatic backdrop of the Great Dividing Range in the Grampians region of Victoria. The first vines were planted on the property in the late 1800s, but in 1969, when the Fratin brothers replanted the vineyards, Mount Langi Ghiran came into its own. In 1980, the talented and energetic wine consultant Trevor Mast worked with the Fratin brothers to raise the quality, and just six years later, he purchased the property. Trevor pioneered the cool-climate style, and with that, one of Australia’s most iconic wines, the Langi Shiraz, was born. In 2002, Mount Langi Ghiran became part of the Rathbone group, and in 2018, Adam Louder, previously a cellar hand under Trevor Mast, became Head Winemaker. The estate is a member of Sustainable Wine Growing Australia. The Mount Langi Ghiran wines are elegant, full of finesse, and the epitome of cool-climate Shiraz.

The Mount Langi Ghiran vineyard is 350 metres above sea level and is set between the namesake Mount Langi Ghiran (922m) and Mount Cole (760m). The mountains create a cooling effect as cold air tumbles down and into the valley. The shadow cast shortens the effective sunshine hours in autumn, extending grape ripening and contributing natural acidity and intense fruit flavours. Mountain erosion over time has created a unique profile of granite sands over sedimentary red clay loam. The texture of this soil profile is ideal for moderating the Shiraz vines' natural vigour, contributing to the subtle spicy pepper flavour for which Mount Langi Ghiran has become renowned. The vines have an average age of 25 years and are Swiss and PT23 clones, with the majority on their rootstocks. A combination of hand and machine harvests the vineyard to retain fruit quality.
