Wild fermented and Vegan friendly, this has a little of the Viognier for which Yalumba are so well known. Stainless steel fermentation and maturation only to ensure a smooth fruit ride. Don’t let the rearing horse scare you off.

Yalumba, The Y Series, Shiraz, Viognier, South Australia, 2018

Full depth plum jam and choc liqueur with apricot cheek lift, pepper and a touch of char. Smooth, full bodied palate with that char carrying over. There’s good concentration of Shiraz fruit and just enough aromatic lift from the Viognier with a welcome mat of fine tannin. Better than your average house pour.
