NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Yalumba Y Series Shiraz is a classic expression of warm climate, Australian Shiraz.It has a deep, ruby hue and aromas of blackberry and espresso. On the palate, it is full-bodied and juicy with flavors of ripe black fruit, sweet spices, and dark chocolate. The finish is long and smooth with hints of pepper. An ideal accompaniment to barbecued meats and stews, this Shiraz is a great value for its price.
