2019 Yalumba 'Tri-Centenary' Bush-Vine Grenache Barossa

Winemaker Notes:  Medium red in color. Aromas of red cherry, berry fruits, anise and milk chocolate are melded by complex herbs and spices. The hallmark of this wine is 100 day post-ferment maceration which imparts incredible silky texture and refinement to the palate, creating a textural wine with depth, structure, vibrant acidity and defined tannins. Stunning now, it will gradually evolve over the medium term.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


James Suckling - "Very floral and quite striking aromas here, with fruit in the blueberry, pepper and spice zone, as well as a leafy edge. There’s berry pastry and pomegranate on offer, together with orange zest and redcurrant. The palate has a very composed core of raspberries, redcurrants, blood orange, papaya and peach. So emulsified and seamless. Good concentration and length here. This vintage spent 249 days on skins and was bottled without any maturation in oak at all. Scintillatingly pure and fresh. Drink over the next decade."
