YALUMBA SAMUEL'S COLLECTION BAROSSA SHIRAZ CABERNET
Barossa Valley, Australia

Exclusive

Yalumba's Barossa Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon red wine blend from Australia's most historic family owned winery.

Rooted in 170 years of history, Samuel's Collection celebrates Yalumba's founder Samuel Smith and his spirit of embracing provenance and giving back to the land. The Barossa Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon is a modern interpretation of the classic style. Initial Shiraz aromas include ripe plum and cherry, followed by the leafy, cedary spice and red currant aromas of cabernet sauvignon. The palate is rich and very generous, yet soft and supple. Balanced flavours linger throughout the long finish. Pair with grilled meats, chili and stews.

Established in 1849, Yalumba is Australia’s most historic family-owned wine company. For six generations, Yalumba has remained fiercely independent and extremely progressive through the generational ownership by the Hill-Smith family. Yalumba’s longevity and success is a result of patience, collaboration and progressive thinking. There is foresight to embrace the natural terroir to craft wines with individual character and a sense of purpose, a spirit to reinvest in the land upon which it operates and knowledge to behave as a leader in the industry. It is committed to sharing stories of provenance gathered over more than 168 years of history of family winemaking.

Barossa is arguably the single most famous wine region in Australia. Barossa includes both Barossa Valley and Eden Valley, making it one of the only areas in Australia to have neighbouring warm and cool climate growing conditions. Yalumba is privileged to have access to some of the oldest vineyards in the world in Barossa Valley, including 1889 bush vine Grenache and 1908 Shiraz. At the inner sanctum of Coonawarra, on the prized terra rossa soil, lies Yalumba’s Coonawarra estate, The Menzies Vineyard. Comprised predominantly of Cabernet Sauvignon vines, this single vineyard is committed to growing premium quality fruit reflecting distinctive varietal characters of the region. Wrattonbully’s cool climate, plentiful high quality artesian water and well drained terra rossa soils led wine companies to plant large areas of mainly red grape varieties.
