1987 Peter Lehman “the king” AD 2008 (Vintage Port) 18.5%
Barossa Valley, South Australia, Mainly Shiraz with some Cabernet Sauvignon. Unusual, metal-embossed bottle, with all the detail on the back.
Confusion alert, as the “AD” is meant to announce peak drinking as a 21-year old wine. Anyway, this was a sneaky auction buy last year for $29- pretty smart for a 37yo.
Hefty sediment, dense colour with minor bricking. Dark cherry, roses, liquorice, blackberry and blackcurrant and amazing high-quality brandy spirit. Soft and mellow, but still tannin sneaking away. Absolutely a winner, with time ahead.
Drink to 2034, and 92 points
