Yalumba

Five generations and 167 years later Yalumba, Australia’s most historic family owned winery, has grown in size and stature, embodying all that has made the Australian wine success story the envy of winemakers the world.

"Full depth with a red crimson hue. The bouquet is of medium to full intensity with bright berry and plum fruits with a seaspray tang that is typical of Yalumba The Menzies. The palate is full bodied and rich, opening with plush red fruits yielding a textured mid-palate and yielding to a lengthy finish" (Ref: www.yalumba.com)

Enjoy with a pomegranate and fennel glazed rack of Limestone Coast lamb.

Most of the vines for Yalumuba The Menzies were planted in 1985 and are trellised tall with wide rows. Bunches are usually small with small berries giving a concentration that favours the creation of full bodied reds. Matured for 18 months in 13% new French hogsheads and barriques. 3% new American hogsheads, 3% new Hungarian hogsheads, balance in 1 year and older American, French and Hungarian hogsheads and barriques.
