Peter Lehmann
Now owned by the Casella family, whose YellowTail label is one of the most extraordinary success stories in the history of wine, Peter Lehmann has the chance for a regroup. This has been one of the most consistent and influential Australian wine brands since the mid 1980s, but recent marketing decisions have resulted in no less than fifteen different sub-brands, several of which compete against each other in the same retail space. Couple this with a legacy of constantly changing names and labels and I'll admit to total confusion -Ę and it's my job to try and understand these things! I hope that the new marketing team are able to rationalise and simplify the Lehmann offerings for the wines certainly deserve their chance.
