Winery Tasting Notes
Colour
The 2010 Yalumba Y Series Shiraz is deep crimson red in colour.
Aroma
It displays aromas of boysenberry and cherry ripe, complemented by a hint of cinnamon oak.
Palate
The palate shows a core of sweet fruit that make this variety so beloved. Flavours of boysenberry and cherry ripe continue with a moderate level of tannin, full body and hearty finish.
Food Matching
A perfect accompaniment for Mediterranean inspired pizza.
Winemaking Note
The grapes were fermented in static potters and rotary fermenters. Both the warm temperatures at onset of fermentation and the three-to-five day post ferment maceration helped extract soft fleshy tannins, which builds wine structure. Suitable for Vegans and Vegetarians.
Wine Background
This Shiraz depicts our coopers toiling in our cooperage crafting magnificent oak barrels, a proud Yalumba tradition in a wine world that has precious few of these truly gifted artisans. Another example of Yalumba ‘controlling the controllables’ in premium winemaking.

Winery Profile
Red 5 Star Winery -James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion Edition 2011
Family-owned and run by Robert Hill Smith, Yalumba has long had a commitment to quality and has shown great vision in its selection of vineyard sites, new varieties and brands. It has always been a serious player at the top end of full-bodied (and full-blooded) Australian reds, and was the pioneer in the use of screwcaps. While its estate vineyards are largely planted to mainstream varieties, it has taken marketing ownership of viognier. However, these days its own brands revolve around the Y Series and a number of stand-alone brands across the length and breadth of SA. Yalumba has been very successful in building its export base. Exports to all major markets.
