AI ResearchedThe Peter Lehmann Portrait Shiraz 2023 is a rich and expressive Barossa red blending fruit from the Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale, shaped by a cooler, later-ripening vintage that delivers vibrant colour, bright fruit, and supple integrated tannins. Matured for 15 months in a combination of French and American oak hogsheads, it is approachable now yet has the structure to cellar through to 2033. The Portrait range embodies Peter Lehmann's founding promise to showcase the true character of the Barossa through its most celebrated traditional varietals.

Tasting Profile
The nose offers lifted aromas of satsuma plum, raspberry, blueberry, and violet with hints of chocolate and creamy oak. The palate is generous yet fresh, with layers of ripe plum and red cherry, fine supple tannins, and a bright, fruit-driven finish underscored by subtle toasty oak.
Region
The Barossa Valley in South Australia is one of Australia's most celebrated wine regions, renowned for producing bold, full-bodied Shiraz from old-vine fruit. The 2023 vintage was characterised by cooler, steadier ripening conditions that added freshness and balance to the region's typically rich style.
