Yalumba Galway Shiraz is a traditional Barossa-style, full-bodied red wine from Australia. The robust character and refined tannins of this vintage Shiraz evoke distinctive flavours of dark cherry, spices, and hints of chocolate. Its rich aroma fascinates your nostrils, while its profound depth and velvety textures make for a lingering finish. Fittingly paired with hearty dishes, this wine also boasts impressive ageing potential. Emanating a certain old-world charm, the Yalumba Galway Shiraz does justice to its ode to Samuel Smith's classic 1950's Galway Vintage. It pays homage to its South Australian heritage with undeniable elegance and flavour intensity.

Tasting Notes

In the glass the wine has bright ruby and crimson hues. This follows through to a generous nose of pepper, blackberry, choc-mocha and vanilla tones. Complexity opens further with hints of liquorice and violets. The savoury palate shows blood plums and sweet spice leading onto soft chewy tannins.
