The Signature Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz 2006
Lots of mint on the nose (69% Cabernet Sauvignon; 31% Shiraz) together with blackberry. On the palate plenty of drive and power in this Cabernet Shiraz blend - layers of fruit, oak and spice. Rich and full bodied - the perfect accompaniment for a vintage Porterhouse steak - Waygu marbelling. Oak has integrated since the tasting 5 years ago. A pity that it takes 20 years for Yalumba’s Signature red to reach its peak but probably true. Interestingly the wine is matured for 22 months in American, French and Hungarian barrels coopered at Yalumba. This was the last bottle from a dozen originally purchased. — 4 months ago

The Octavius Barossa Old Vine Shiraz 2009
This wine has aged like a queen! Balanced, matured dark red fruit, spices intermingle to deliver an excellent wine. There is fresh fruit that is unexpected and velvety tannins that say enjoy!! I would say this wine is at its peak. Fruit is still there and tannins and acidity are well balanced. Enjoy!!! — 2 months ago

Lawrence Asrikin
Unusually complex for Grenache at this price range. Light and slightly savory. Notes of ginger, lemongrass, and pepper right after opening. Followed by mint and licorice after it opened up. — 9 days ago
