Peter Lehmann
The Barossan Shiraz
Barossa, South Australia, Australia
When we were travelling through Italy and were staying in Florence we hit up a night market. It was at the market I found this gorgeous leather notebook which I used to write my tasting notes in at the time. Now I do everything digitally but I have to admit I love flicking through the pages of this journal.

A big thanks to #CasellaFamilyBrands for sending over this bottle of the Peter Lehmann ‘The Barossan’ 2016 Shiraz. As the name suggests, it’s set out to be a quintessential example of Shiraz from the Barossa Valley.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I found it a deep ruby purple-red colour in the glass with dried herbs, cherry and berries, cedar and aniseed on the nose. In the mouth it’s full of vanilla and black currant. It’s full bodied with plentiful flavour and begging to be teamed up with a nice big piece of meat or hearty veggie dish 👌

The leather motif on the label I guess is meant to evoke the leather note which is definitely there. The texture seems leathery too. Deep cherry and soft wood. Not bad. Masculine without being huge.
