Located at the southern end of the Barossa Valley, Lou Miranda Estate is a family-run boutique winery rooted in Italian heritage and hospitality. Founded by Lou Miranda and now led by his daughters Lisa, Angela, and Victoria, the estate carries forward a legacy that began with their grandfather who immigrated to Australia from southern Italy in the late 30's with a passion for good wine and family. Today, the Mirandas produce all their wines from 100 acres of estate-owned vineyards spread across four sites within eight kilometres of the winery — including four treasured centenarian vine blocks, the oldest planted in 1897. From vineyard to bottle, their philosophy remains simple: great food and wine are meant to be shared.
Named in honour of the vineyard's golden autumn vines as they prepare for a new season of growth, the Gold Lion collection celebrates both the family's enduring winemaking heritage and the natural cycle that shapes each vintage.
Aromas of ripe dark berries, plum, and warm spice are complemented by subtle notes of vanilla and toasted oak. The generous, medium- to full-bodied palate layers rich dark fruit, chocolate, brown spice, and vanilla, with integrated tannins and a touch of sweetness adding balance and texture. Flavourful and well-structured, it finishes long with lingering notes of oak spice and ripe fruit.
It's opulent with gorgeous complexity. The wine shows dark fruit intensity, vanillin oak, cured meat, and star anise characters on the nose, followed by a succulent palate that delivers a plush texture and silky tannins. Wonderfully expressed with plenty of delicious flavours. At its best: now to 2036.
