The Wendouree vineyard is dry farmed and grapes are handpicked. In the winery, wines are fermented with indigenous yeasts in open-top, stainless-steel fermenters. Post-ferment, French oak barrels are sourced for aging for up to 12 months.

The original stone winery at the estate is still used for production and Wendouree's 12 hectare (30 acre) vineyard is planted to old vine Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Mataro, and Muscat of Alexandria – most of which was planted in the late 1890s to early 1900s. The Wendouree vineyard is dry farmed and grapes are handpicked. In the winery, wines are fermented with indigenous yeasts in open-top, stainless-steel fermenters. Post-ferment, French oak barrels are sourced for aging for up to 12 months. The winery produces around 2000 cases annually of varietal and blended wines including Shiraz Mataro, Shiraz Malbec, and Cabernet Malbec. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVintage: 2010\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cmslanding__image-desc\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"col-12 mb-0 px-0\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"small text-muted pb-1\"\u003eDrinking Window: 2022-2030\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"mb-4 ml-0\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Langtons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47763971014958,"sku":"SK96420757","price":199.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/WendoureeShirazMalbec750ml_1_303a257d-e6f0-420d-9c43-990961a6bb2a.png?v=1705021138"},{"product_id":"2018-wendouree-malbec-750ml","title":"2018 Wendouree Malbec 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom 1898 plantings on the Central Vineyard.
