This 2006 Futures Shiraz from a great red wine year, was made from outstanding parcels of fruit sourced from a small number of specialist Barossa growers. It illustrates beyond doubt the Peter Lehmann winemakers’ passion and commitment to producing distinctively regional Barossa Shiraz with exceptional flavour and structural elegance. Dense centre with a vibrant garnet rim. Aromas of dark chocolate, lashings of prunes and a hint of mixed spice. A superbly structured Shiraz, the intensity and depth of the fruit is reined in by firm tannins and beautifully integrated oak. It is truly a classic Barossa Shiraz reflecting the hallmarks of a great vintage year. Selected low yielding, mature Barossa Shiraz vineyards. Matured in French oak hogsheads for 12 months. Cellaring: Whilst excellent sipping now, this wine can confidently be cellared for 10 plus years. Alc/Vol: 14.5% Serving Suggestions: An excellent partner for braised lamb shanks, richly flavoured casseroles, and of course, perfect with a superlative matured cheddar.
