Langton’s 1st Classified - Australia’s Wines of Pedigree & Provenance
First Classified
The most highly prized of all Australian fine wines. Representing generations of effort and character of place.
A special designation of ‘1st Classified’ is reserved for a small cohort of wines representing the most desirable wines in Australia that compete with the world’s finest. The ‘1st Classified’ name is a homage to the Premier Cru (First Growth) wines that sit atop the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, which was the original inspiration for the LANGTONS Classification.
“To make it into the LANGTONS Classification, each wine must have been released for at least ten vintages and have a strong track record in the secondary market. Icons of Australian fine wine lead the line, including Penfolds Grange, Henschke Hill of Grace, Wendouree Shiraz, Rockford Basket Press Shiraz, and Leeuwin Estate Art Series Chardonnay. These stalwarts have graced LANGTONS Classification year after year and embody the pinnacle of Australian fine wine with demand for blue chip wines and producers another key trend.” - langtons.com.au
