    This one's a sell out! New (Gold medal winning) 2014 vintage on its way soon...

    Like fathers, like sons. Back in the 1970s Peter Lehmann teamed up with Robert Hesketh and together they formed Masterton Wines, which later went on to become the legendary Barossa label now known as Peter Lehmann Wines.

    Today, sons Phil (Lehmann) and Johnathon (Hesketh) have teamed up to produce their own Barossa wines under the Hesketh name (Lehmann was already taken). Boy oh boy, they’ve done a stellar job!

    A Barossa red you could take home to your mum, well, sort of. Cuisine magazine judges (awarded it 4 1/2 Stars and Best Buy) called it “Well-mannered Barossa shiraz of good type that’s just a little less emphatic than the time-honoured style. It’s full, rich and ripe, yet it has freshness.”

    From a great 2015 vintage in the Barossa (rated 9/10 by James Halliday), given 15 months in oak before release, Phil reckons this should cellar comfortably for 8-10 years yet.
