Since 16th century, property was passed from generation to generation, until 1920s when the Borie's bought the property. 80% Cab Sauv, 80% new oak, aromas of ripe red fruits with floral spice. Palate shows blackberry and cherry fruit, well balanced, nice oak integration, chewy tannins ending with spicy mineral tones. — 2 years ago
My note of 49 weeks ago tells the full story of this historic vineyard planted in 1885 and tended by 6th generation Ralph Schrapel. Part of the Peter Lehmann VSV (Very Special Vineyard) series. This wine is delicious old school Barossa with ripe plum, dark chocolate, cherry, liquorice and coffee grounds. A hint of prune on the nose. Great to be drinking these rich reds as the weather cools down. This vineyard is in the Ebenezer sub district of the Barossa. My last bottle sadly. — 3 years ago
Ótimo vinho. Harmonizado com costelinha suína ao molho de mostarda e mel. Taninos bem macios com final sedoso. No aroma tive a sensação de presente de uma fruta, me lembrou amora bem madura e no final senti um aroma de chocolate — 9 months ago
