The Southern Wine Report - ’05 Peter Lehmann Shiraz Tuesday, November 25, 2008


This week it's the Thunder From Down Under: Peter Lehmann Of The Barossa Shiraz '05 $15. This classy wine has dark cherry and dark chocolate aromas. Real nice nose to the wine. The dark fruit flavored wine is medium bodied and well balanced. The tannins are well managed, the mouthfeel is soft and supple, the finish smooth and harmonious. This 100% shiraz shows why the Barossa is the leader in Australian Shiraz. This wine is one you should seek out, it will complete dark meats nicely but stands on it's own as a sipper as well.
