Yalumba 2008 Shiraz-Viognier (Eden Valley)

Country: Australia /
Variety: Shiraz-Viognier South Australia
Winery: Yalumba / Eden Valley

This is the midlevel entry in Yalumba’s Shiraz-Viognier range, slotting in above the Y Series but below the Hand Picked. It’s a medium-bodied, slightly creamy-textured wine, with prominent green olive and peppercorn nuances to its plummy flavors. It fades a little on the finish, so drink now–2013.
