Yalumba The Signature Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz 2016 – Barossa Valley Australia
Yalumba The Signature Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz
Barossa Valley 2016
The 47th year
Each vintage of The Signature is a tribute to an individual who has played an important role in the development of Yalumba culture and traditions. The 2016 vintage is dedicated to Louisa Rose, who was named Australian Winemaker of the Year in 2008 by Gourmet Traveler WINE. Louisa is known for her work with white wines, especially Riesling and Viognier, from the prized vineyards of the Eden Valley. She is a passionate ambassador for these grape varieties and enjoys great recognition in the wine world.
Growth conditions
A mild winter was followed by a warm and dry spring season, making for a quiet start to the growing season. This weather continued until the end of January, when 25mm of rain fell, giving the vines the nourishment they needed to complete the ripening of the grapes. The hot days of summer and autumn were balanced by cool nights, resulting in excellent concentration and a long flavor profile.
Tasting notes
The wine has an intense, dense, deep red color. The fragrance offers notes of red currant, perfumed cedar and complex, spicy dried herbs. This classic Cabernet Shiraz blend impresses with precise aromas and a rich middle palette of exotic flowers, cranberry nuances and dark chocolate. A full-bodied wine with a long and elegant tannin profile that frames the wine's generous and refined character.
The 2016 vintage is a wine that exudes both elegance and grandeur – a stylish interpretation of the best of the Barossa Valley.
