Why We Love This Wine

Peter Lehman wines was established in 1980 in Tanunda South Australia by its eponymous founder who was widely known as the "Baron of Barossa". Their iconic wine is the Stonewell Shiraz, a wine that includes grapes from their own estate vineyards in the Maranaga district of Barossa Valley. They source their grapes from 140 different grape growers throughout the Barossa & Eden Vallays as well as Adelaide Hills. A dry, full-bodied Shiraz, the nose offers up aromas of dark plum with undertones of dusted chocolate shavings. On the palate, rich fruit flavors abound amply tempered by soft tannins.

This is a full-bodied,richly flavored red with a generous palate showcasing a plethora of rich red fruits ultimately leading to a soft & smooth finish.
