Details
Structured, stylish, and just a little bit rugged — this Cab is like a well-worn leather jacket with a sea breeze twist. Expect classic blackcurrant and cassis up front, backed by notes of cedar, dried herbs, and graphite. There’s a coastal freshness here that keeps it from feeling too heavy, with fine tannins and a long, savoury finish. It’s polished, but still keeps its thongs (flip-flops, not the other kind) firmly on.
Don’t Feed the Seagulls is not your typical wine label — and that’s entirely the point. Born from the breezy, free-spirited attitude of South Australia’s Limestone Coast, this range is all about making serious wine that doesn’t take itself too seriously. The name’s a cheeky nod to beachside living and a reminder to keep things relaxed — but behind the playful branding is a commitment to quality, sustainability, and showcasing what this coastal region does best: vibrant, expressive reds with coastal freshness and depth. With vineyards across the Limestone Coast and Langhorne Creek, they capture not only a cool maritime climate and mineral-rich soils, but ancient vines and a warm, temperate climate. With this balance, they're set up for crafting bold, yet balanced wines. Whether it’s Shiraz or Cabernet, the style here leans toward ripe fruit, bright acidity, and an easygoing charm that makes these wines as good for a barbecue as they are for a candlelit dinner. Think laid-back luxury — with a splash of sunshine and salt air.

Pairing guide
This Cab is calling out for roast lamb with garlic and rosemary, beef ragu pasta, or a lentil and mushroom shepherd’s pie. The herbaceous notes also pair beautifully with stuffed peppers or a grilled veggie lasagne. Or, keep it casual and enjoy with chargrilled steak and chimichurri while watching the sun go down. Just keep an eye on your chips — you know how seagulls get.

Wine region

Langhorne Creek, Australia
The Langhorne Creek is a wine region in South Australia that is best known for its rich, full-bodied red wines such as Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. The region has a Mediterranean climate with warm summers and mild winters, and a cooling influence from nearby Lake Alexandrina which helps moderate the temperature. All of which makes this region ideal for producing high-quality and age-worthy red wines. In fact, the region is responsible for a large portion of the red grapes used in wines all over the state! The region also produces some white wines, particularly Chardonnay, but it's the red that makes up the lion's share of plantings. The region is surrounded by picturesque countryside and has a long history of grape growing and winemaking dating back to the 1850s.
