Peter Lehmann Wines Portrait Riesling 2016, Eden Valley, Australia: The vines for this stunning Australian Riesling are planted in sparse limestone soils, quite the opposite of Barossa 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: 2016-2024. 303305 11.50% XD 750 mL $25.00 Score: 93/100. December 7, 2017

More than 120 different parcels of grapes go into this wine. It's supple and beautifully nuanced, yet has full-bodied richness. Drink: 2016-2023. 301309 14% D 750 mL $27.00 Score: 93/100.
