Wine Description
With a first name John and a family name anchored deep in the story of the Barossa’s western ridge, John Lienert is also known as ‘Jack West’, elusive and enigmatic winemaker and grapegrower. A name that rings big and bold, just like the character of these wines. Made in the vineyard and hitting the mark for those seeking generously flavoured Barossa reds.
