Yalumba The Guardian Shiraz Viognier Eden Valley 2010

Eden Valley, South Australia, AustraliaThis Eden Valley shiraz is graced with 2.5 percent cofermented viognier. Sweetly spiced dark plums, chocolate covered cherries, thorny bramble berry, cracked nutmeg and cloves fill the juicy, generous palate. Older leather plumps, and plush, lightly tuggy tannins frame. Savoury Worcestershire lingers on the warm (14.5 percent) and spiced finish. Showing nice maturity and ready to drink now, especially with lamb and fennel sausages.Tasted: 08 February 2017Tasted by: Prices:
