1999 Yalumba Barossa Shiraz Viognier

Another very successful wine which has been matured for twenty months in American oak hogsheads. Very deep crimson colour with brick red hue. Nose of leather, spice, stewed fruit and a hint of earth. The palate shows plenty of weight and mouthfeel with strong liquorice, plum and spice flavours over a distinct blackpepper background. Fine grained soft tannins followed by a long plum, spice and blackpepper aftertaste.
Cellar 3-4 years. (2005-2006)
