A classic representation of the Barossa’s patchwork of  soils, vines and terroir. Winemaker is Alexey Alon Doumbouya

Yalumba, Galway Vintage, Shiraz, Barossa, 2023

Could this be from anywhere but the Barossa? Baking spices, black tea, blood plums, chocolate ganache, a little blackberry and kissed with vanilla. Flowing, supple and full. Bright and ripe fruit given a decent frame of soft, fine tannin. Nothing complex, but well balanced, well made and easily drinkable.
