The Barossa Valley, with its warm lingering summers, is a natural home for the noble rot, Botrytis Cinera. What can be a grapegrowers curse is masterfully crafted in this luscious wine that shows the beauty & diversity of the Semillon grape. The history of this wine dates back to winemaker Andrew Wigan's visit to the iconic Chateau d' Yquem in 1981, home to the world's greatest sweet wine. His time in their vineyards & winery inspired him to recreate the style in the Barossa.. A beautiful bright gold colour which will deepen with bottle age. It has wonderful tropical fruit aromas with just a hint of citrus. It is a truly harmonious wine with a delicious lusciousness on the middle palate counterbalanced by tantalizingly complex acidity, the hallmark of botrytis wine. With creamy blue vein or washed rind cheeses. A delicious accompaniment for fruit flans, warm winter puddings & great with scrambled eggs for a luxurious brunch. Can be cellared for 20 plus years. ...

The Hill & Valley Series wines honour the greatness of our growers' vineyards that have defined quality at Peter Lehmann Wines since our foundation in 1979. Each vintage we keep certain parcels of fruit separate & release them as individual wines. We believe these wines to be a true expression of the varietal characters & unique terroir of the vineyards from which they are made. This single site Chardonnay displays the wonderful diversity of the Barossa region. Grapes were sourced from the Zander family property tucked away high up in the Eden Valley in the Eastern Barossa Ranges. Their vineyard is planted with the superior Bernard clones & the site is particularly cool, perched on a steep east facing slope, on lean rocky soils. This is an early picked, delicate Chardonnay with a fine green, gold tinge & a lovely balance of fruit complexity derived from careful barrel fermentation & maturation. It is a wine that will develop beautifully over the next 4-5 years during which time it will become a deeper gold colour & richer in flavour. Careful winemaking & cool barrel maturation have preserved the piercing & pristine flavours from this site. ...

The palate is richly opulent, beautifully structured with layered, fully integrated tannins supporting the depth of fruit. It is truly a Royal wine from a great red wine vintage year. It is a limited edition classical Barossa Shiraz from low-yielding vineyards. Low yielding, mature shiraz vineyards in the Stonewell & Light Pass districts of the Barossa Valley. Fermented & macerated on skins for up to 2 weeks with some partial barrel fermentation. Following pressing & clarification, the wine was matured in French oak hogsheads for Approx. 18 months. Eight Songs Shiraz sings with rare roast beef, rich casseroles, beef & game pies, &, of course, a great aged cheddar. Eight Songs Shiraz was born of our love of art & music & inspired by an operatic work, Eight Songs for Mad King, first performed in the Barossa in 1993. The Barossa stands amongst the great wine regions of the world. From this region, Shiraz can express diversity in flavour, style & texture. The diverse terroir of our growers Barossa vineyards is reflected in the character of our wines. Soils, elevations & vine age vary from one vineyard to the next. The heart of Eight Songs lies in the old Shiraz vineyards spread across the landscape of the Barossa. During the vintage, we walk these vineyards, which typically yield less than 2.5 tons per acre, tasting the fruit, seeking the concentrated flavours we need for this style of Shiraz. With Eight Songs we show an elegant & distinctly softer side to Barossa Shiraz. Fermented & matured in 100% new French oak hogsheads the palate shows dark plums, choc/ mocha notes with hints of vanillin undertones. The seamless integration of opulent fruit & velvety tannins creates an elegant expression of Barossa Shiraz at its sensuous best. ...
