Portrait Series

2010 Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon

The Peter Lehmann Portrait Series Cabernet Sauvignon from the esteemed Barossa region is a captivating red wine that exemplifies the rich, bold nature inherent to the varietal. This 2010 vintage dazzles with deep, ruby hues and offers an enticing bouquet of dark fruits, including blackcurrant and plum, intertwined with hints of cedar and spice. On the palate, it showcases generous body, balanced by a vibrant acidity that provides liveliness and freshness. The tannins are firm yet beautifully integrated, lending structure to the wine while allowing the fruit intensity to shine. On the finish, the wine is decidedly dry, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and complexity. This Cabernet Sauvignon is a splendid representation of Barossa's winemaking prowess, perfect for both special occasions and hearty meals.

Region:


Barossa

One of Australia's best-known wine regions, the Barossa Valley sits an hour north of Adelaide, where many of the country's most famous wineries are based. In this historic region, old bush vines—some dating back as far as 1860—produce full-bodied wines of dramatic depth and scope, principally from Shiraz, Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon. But Shiraz is the region's most popular varietal, with "Barossa Shiraz" almost a recognized brand in its own right, due to its concentrated flavors of juicy black fruit, plush tannins and the sweet spice of American oak. But whites are equally classy here, too, with Barossa's fresh, unoaked Sémillons and always captivating lush Chardonnays.
