Description
Yalumba Samuel's Collection is a tribute to Samuel Smith, the founder of Yalumba, his independent spirit and belief in investing in land and making fine wines. This cell phone comes from the Barossa - where the most beautiful Grenache-Shiraz and Mataro (=mourvedre/monastrell) come from. The Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro are picked separately for this wine and fermented in small batches - some in oak barrels and some in stainless steel barrels. The subsequent wine was aged for 11 months in new French oak hogsheads (13%) and in old French, Hungarian and American oak hogsheads. French oak barriques allow the wines to develop without the influence of much oak flavor while increasing texture and complexity.
The Yalumba Samuel's Collection Grenache-Shiraz-Mataro is vibrant ruby red in color, the wine is very aromatic with layers of blueberries, rhubarb, crushed rose petals and cinnamon. The palate is juicy and bright with blueberry aromas and chocolate-like tannins. Enjoy this wine with Kung Pao Chicken or Pad Thai with fried tofu.
