Yalumba Eden Valley Shiraz Viognier 2009

This wine is deep red in colour with sweet, fresh and fragrant aromatics of cherries, plums and bright red-currant fruits. Subtle spices and clove notes are present as are the floral hints of Viognier. This is a medium to full bodied wine with red fruit flavours, fine spices and cloves. It is a rich and softly textured Shiraz with the subtle sweet textures of Viognier. Great to drink now, but will also reward 5-7 years in the cellar. 14% alc.

Expert Review

88 points - "Co-fermented with 3% Viognier, the 2008 Shiraz Viognier displays a deep garnet-purple color and pronounced blackberry and dried leave aromas with a touch of baked fruit, some earth and a whiff of anise. Medium-bodied with medium-firm grainy tannins, it has high acidity and plenty of warm berry fruit in the mouth, finishing long. Drink it now to 2015."
