Yalumba Cabernet Sauvignon/Shiraz The Signature Museum Release Chris Greening 2014

Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaThis is a blend of 57% cabernet sauvignon and 43% shiraz from Barossa, with the parcels averaging 60 years of age and dating as far back as 1925. This museum release shows the wine at its peak, at least to this palate, leaning into complex, tertiary notes from bottle age, yet still backed by retained fruit and suave, resolved tannins. 2014 was a cooler vintage, and you can feel that here, with a balanced freshness to the wine that is more medium bodied than full. There's something decidedly classic about it, very much in Yalumba’s characteristic style. It's remarkable value for what’s in the bottle, almost in a class of its own.Tasted: 19 March 2025Tasted by: Geoffrey Moss MWPrices:
