The Masters wines are named after a person whom, or event that, has played an intrinsic role in the Peter Lehmann story. Crafted from the classic Barossa varietals, the wines are released with 5 years of bottle age and will continue to age gracefully for many years. Margaret Lehmann is the great woman beside the great man: wife, business partner, and champion of Peter Lehmann Wines and the Barossa Valley. Peter Lehmann winemakers rewrote the rulebooks of Barossa Semillon in the early 90s, eschewing oak and opting for an early-picked style that lent itself to ageing. The result is Margaret Semillon. Released after five years cellaring, it has youthful lemongrass aromas and citrus acidity that belie its age; and complexity you would expect from an aged white with a bountiful trophy cabinet.

Full of beautiful lifted lemon zest and curd. Lovely lemon sherbet characters along with pure zesty acidity. This is a Margaret that requires significant time (and patience) to reach its full drinking potential.

WINE MAKERS NOTES

The Spring of 2016 was one for the record books, with bountiful rain filling up dams and
overflowing rivers throughout the Barossa Valley in what became one of the wettest
winters on record. The resulting wet soils, combined with a cooler-than-average spring and early summer resulted in a far later-than-usual harvest and the grapes saw an extended ripening period – most unusual for the Barossa. The 2017 vintage will be remembered for its exceptional elegance and purity of fruit, perfect for our style of Semillon.
