The Masters wines are the top tier of Peter Lehmann’s original classic Barossa varietals, made for the long haul and released with bottle age to capture their full potential. These wines are named after a person or event that has played an intrinsic role in the Peter Lehmann story.
Peter Lehmann mentored countless people over his 50-year career, and this wine is named in his honour.
A remarkable Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2013 Mentor draws fruit from a number of Barossa sub-regions, each with their own unique terroir. This wine captures immense varietal definition with added complexity of old vine, low-yielding fruit, matured in French oak barrels. Mentor is made as the best expression of Barossa Cabernet of vintage, with the addition of small portions of complementary varieties in certain years
WINE MAKERS NOTES
This limited release is our best Barossa Cabernet of vintage. The 2013 Mentor is a rich, deeply coloured wine that exhibits a bouquet of violet and cassis and a touch of dark chocolate. The palate is rich and structured with a classic Barossa Cabernet tannin, followed by a long finish balanced by blue fruits and cassis. The 2013 Mentor is a magnificent wine that can be confidently cellared until 2033 - enjoy with richer dishes of duck, goose and game.
