Peter Lehmann Wines Portrait Shiraz 2013, Barossa, Australia: The grapes come from an elevated region of the Barossa Valley and express that cooler vibrancy in the wine.

Peter Lehmann Wines Wigan Riesling 2011, Eden Valley, Australia: The vines for this stunning Australian Riesling are planted in sparse limestone soils, quite the opposite of Barrosa terroir. The result is a tightly wound, racy, exciting Riesling with a nervy edge of acidity for seafood. This wine will live on past your grandchildren. The wine is named in honour of a winemaker who had been at the helm for 34 years. Highly recommended. Drink: 2012-2022. 303305 11.50% XD 750 mL  $25.00 Score: 94/100. May 15, 2016 Top Rated White Wine. Full Review
