Yalumba The Guardian Shiraz Viognier Eden Valley 2010

Eden Valley, South Australia, AustraliaLovely blackcurrant nose with a light but persistent floral element (from the 2.5 percent viognier perhaps). Blueberry compote, violet, cassis, wild blackberry, fine nutmeg and cloved spice are carried with gentle, lightly grippy tannins. Peppery spice, anise and herbal mustard seed on the lengthy finish. Nice breadth and length; a very pleasing pour, especially with lamb and fennel sausages.Tasted: 10 June 2015Tasted by: Prices:
