Yalumba The Octavius Edition V 1994
Eden Valley, South Australia, AustraliaMade with 80 per cent new American oak and 100 per cent shiraz split 53/47 between Barossa/Eden the 94 Octavius remains a blockbuster. The nose is intense with sweet cherry and vanilla scents. The fruit is highly concentrated showing more ripe cherry, licorice chocolate and plenty of power. Big warm and long in the finish. Should continue to plateau for another four to five years.Tasted: 05 May 2005Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $72.95 | 750ml |
