Bright, medium-depth yellow colour which shows development but is youthful for its age. The bouquet is very expressive, with lemon-butter, lightly browned toast and roasted nut aromas. The palate flavours display seriously good ripe semillon flavour with the enhancement of eight years of bottle-age, which adds a wonderful patina of mellowness. Utterly gorgeous aged semillon, with none of the greenness that Barossa sem can show, and it's in a great place for enjoyment right now. Drink to 2034.
97 points Huon Hooke for The Real Review, October 2026
Complex aromas of sliced apples, attractive white truffles, beeswax, blossoms and a subtle steely touch. Full-bodied, bright and concentrated, with a flavorful center palate and a lasting, lightly phenolic finish of truffles. It lingers very well. A semillon that show the aging potential of this grape. Drink or hold.
95 points Zekun Shuai for James Suckling, October 2026
The Margaret Semillon is always released as a mature wine but capable of ageing another 5 to 10 years depending on vintage. Will develop more honeyed, nutty complexity over time.
It is named in honour of Margaret Lehmann, the late Peter Lehmann’s wife and business partner, the wine has become synonymous with exceptional quality and longevity, earning acclaim from wine show judges and collectors around the world for each vintage.
Sourced from old vine vineyards in the Barossa Valley, the fruit is hand-picked early to retain high natural acidity. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel and the wine is held on fine lees for texture and complexity.
