About Yalumba Y Series Shiraz Viognier 2022 750ML
The Yalumba Y Series Shiraz Viognier 2022 opens with an inviting and fragrant bouquet that immediately signals the co-fermented Viognier's influence — lifted violet and white peach florals intertwine with dark plum, blackberry, and a whisper of cracked black pepper. On the palate, this is a generously fruited Barossa-style Shiraz with a silky, approachable texture. Ripe blueberry and blackcurrant lead the way, supported by a subtle savouriness and gentle spice. The Viognier co-fermentation lends a distinctive perfumed lift and a smoothness to the tannins that sets this wine apart from a straight Shiraz. The finish is medium in length, with lingering dark fruit and a gentle peppery warmth that fades gracefully.
