NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Yalumba Organic Shiraz is a delightful wine that showcases the unique characteristics of Shiraz grapes grown organically.On the nose, you can expect vibrant aromas of ripe blackberries, plums, and a hint of spice. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with flavors of dark fruits, black pepper, and a touch of chocolate. The tannins are well-integrated, providing a smooth and velvety texture. This Shiraz has a good balance of acidity, adding freshness to the wine. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of dark fruits and spice.
