Tasting Notes

Blush red with hints of purple. Lifted leafy and cassis notes from the Cabernet predominate the aroma profile, with touches of spice and red fruits from the Shiraz and Merlot. Unmistakably Cabernet driven, this is a plush wine rich in red fruit flavours, toasted oak and gentle sweeps of spice.

Technical Notes

Founded in 1979, Peter Lehmann Wines brings unmatched diversity, uniqueness and quality from more than 800 hand-tended vineyards across the length and breadth of all 14 Barossa sub-regions. The quality of Peter Lehmann Wines are a testament to our relationships, allowing us access to the region’s finest grapes.

Clancy’s is a legendary Barossa red blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Merlot. This wine is a delicious introduction to the timeless craft of the Peter Lehmann winemaking community. Perfectly crafted blending makes Clancy’s a crowd-pleaser every time. Each bottle benefits from true collaboration between winemakers and growers, who all believe in making honest wines that showcase the best of a cross- section of vineyards throughout the Barossa.

The 2016 vintage in the Barossa began with warm and dry weather, no disease pressure and one magnificent rain event at the end of January. This was perfectly timed for veraison of the grapes and flavour development.

The grapes are individually vinified to the completion of fermentation. Following blending of the varietals, the wine is matured in new and old French and American oak hogsheads for 12 months.
