Wine Description
The story of Stonewell Shiraz began in 1987, to createa wine of immense depth and intensity. The wine was named 'Stonewell' after the district that Peter Lehmann believed best showed the characters he admired most in Barossa Shiraz. The secret to Stonewell Shiraz is the outstanding quality of grapes - often referred to as little black jewels - drawn only from low-yielding vineyards that produce sparse bunches with tiny, but intensely flavoured fruit, which we call 'little black jewels.'
Textural, intense red and dark plummy fruits. More dark chocolate in style, the tannins are just starting to open up to reveal a wine of immense power and grace.
