"Ripe plum, dark berries, a sort of musty, earthy character, black olive, dried olive, rosemary. Palate is more succulent but also pretty firm and dry, with adjunct, coffee ground tannins feeling outside the fruit core. Finishes gritty with coffee ground tannins too. It’s got concentration and depth..." - Mike Beannie, Wine Front
"The story of Stonewell Shiraz began in 1987 when Peter Lehmann decided to make a special Shiraz - a wine of immense intensity and muscularity that would demand time in the barrel and bottle before release. The wine was named ‘Stonewell’ after the district that he believed best showed the characters admired most in Barossa Shiraz.
This limited release Stonewell has a dense deep black centre with a deep garnet rim. The wine exhibits aromas of dark plum and chocolate with hints of mint. Its structure is superbly taut with intense depth of fruit reined in by the firm tannins. A wine made in strictly limited quantities, this Stonewell release is a wine for posterity and may be cellared with confidence until 2035." - Peter Lehmann
Sustainably-made
