THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE PRIVATE SELECTION A GRAND VINE AVAILABLE TO A SELECT FEW
A grand Barossa wine is always like a fine ensemble cast, portraying where it comes from and when. Private Selection, from Lyndoch Manoir, is based on a grand trio of basic principles: a great terroir, a superior vintner and the artistry of one of the most illustrious wine makers of our time.
Once produced only for family and friends, now this fine wine is available to others today – though only in limited supply. A grand vision was realized with Private Selection: the making of a top quality wine, without compromise; a wine so phenomenal that you will only want to share it with your closest family members and best of friends.
Lyndoch Manoir Private Selection is one of the truly grand wines of the Barossa Valley, made for a very small, select group of wine lovers and refined taste buds. Accordingly, Private Selection is emblematic of the vision for this exquisite passion that has only one measure: the uncompromising expression of elegance and finesse that extends beyond fashion and trends.
This perfectly balanced grand assemblage of Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot gives an unparalleled, unique depth to the bouquet of Private Selection. A full-bodied wine with velvety tannins, deep violet in colour, Private Selection has an intense aroma of black cassis with hints of chocolate and forest berries folded in and ends with a long finish. The subtle mix of aromatic complexity with the wine’s innate brawn gives Lyndoch Manoir Private Selection a sustained opulence, brimming with impressions and feelings.
A long maturation period in French oak barrels adds to the full expression of Private Selection. The wine is aged very slowly, first in oak barrels and then for decades in the bottle. For each owner of an older vintage bottle of Private Selection, patience is richly rewarded. An older vintage unlocks complex flavour combinations, something like the maturing of an old friendship spanning decades. An aged vintage leads to an unforgettable experience.
Timeless moments have been enjoyed in Lyndoch, again and again, year after year, since 1837.
