Peter Lehmann Moppa Shiraz 2012
Moppa, Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaOver the past decade, the Lehmann winemaking team has identified a number of special vineyards in the Barossa and Eden Valleys that consistently stand out on the tasting bench. Each year fruit from the 'District Wines' is set aside and processed in small batches to highlight the individual site in question and is recognised on the label. At Lehmann there are some 140 carefully selected independent growers to work with and tend around 750 individual vineyards across Barossa and Eden Valleys. This wine is named after the small district of Moppa, just north of Greenock. Fruit sourced from the Hallion, Hampel and Mulraney vineyards and grown in the deep sand. Expect plenty of power and weight combine with black fruit spice and liquorice. This is the full meal deal Barossa shiraz: generous, rich and spicy with well managed tannins from a very good vintage. Perfect for rich menu items like lamb beef or old cheeses.Tasted: 30 March 2014Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $30.00 | 750ml | Cellar Door |
