A little piece of the Barossa is taking to the skies!  We are incredibly proud to announce that our Lou's Reserve 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon has been selected for British Airways Business Class, with passengers set to enjoy this special wine from 2027.

They are living milestones of resilience, history, and craftsmanship. At Lou Miranda Estate, this legacy
