What to Expect

The classic Bordeaux blends rely on either Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon for the bulk of the wine with additions of Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec helping to add complexity, color, body and structure to the finished wine.

Winemakers Notes

Fruit Source: Stonewell, Ebenezer and Light Pass districts of
the Barossa Valley.

The Vintage: A warmer year in the Barossa, producing a
diverse concentration of flavours in many of the
Barossa's vineyards.

Colour: Deep ruby red with a black heart.
Bouquet: A delicious mélange of vanilla, cassis, dark
chocolate and black plum.

Palate: Fours years’ maturation prior to release has
allowed the blend to fully integrate. It shows a
seamless palate with a superb concentration of
rich plum and chocolate. read more...

Reviews

Peter Lehmann has created another gem in the 1999 Mentor. Starting right out of the bottle it has a complex and sophisticated nose with little room for doubt about the body and potency of this wine. Tastes and smells of exciting fruits, including berries and stone fruits along with an ending of pepper and mineral. This wine is very long on the tongue and aside from a mildly chalky sensation toward the end, its longevity is appreciate. All-in-all a well built wine that should be enjoy liberally.

Wine Spectator ReviewRated 90Dark, dense and ripe, not heavy in texture but chewy with soft tannins around a plump core of cherry, herb and smoke flavors. It all lasts impressively. A classy wine meant to wrap itself around food rather than stand on its own. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz and Malbec. Best from 2006 through 2012.

Dunkles Rubinrot. Ausgewogenes Bouquet mit Noten von Pflaumen, dunklen Früchten und Eichenholz, mit einem Hauch Muskatnuss und Vanille. Im Gaumen klassischer Barossa-Charakter, vollmundig, samtige Struktur mit gut eingebundenen Eichenholznoten.
