Tasting Note

Deep red to crimson in colour. The aromatics display baking spices, plum, licorice allsorts, and blackberries. There are nuances of sea spray and ozone, combined with a melange of dark berries. The palate is rich and supple with great depth. Dark fruits, such as blueberry, are complemented by a savoury mid palate, showing tapenade and dried herbs. There are lovely bitter chocolate tannins and the recognisable structure and architecture that Coonawarra Cabernet is famous for. The palate crosses the line between savoury and fruit sweetness beautifully and will be a lovely youthful wine as well as maturing into an elegant and structural older wine.

Product Notes

Yalumba The Cigar Cabernet Sauvignon is a rich and full-bodied red wine from Australia's Barossa Valley winery. This wine is a blend of 97% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Shiraz, which gives it a deep ruby red color with purple hues. On the nose, it has complex aromas of blackberry, cassis, and a hint of mint and eucalyptus. The palate is full of intense flavors of black fruits, mocha, and spice, with a long and silky finish. This wine is aged in French oak barrels for 18 months, which gives it a delightful balance of tannins and acidity. Pair it with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and mature cheeses for a perfect meal.

About the Winery

Yalumba

Yalumba is a rich and ancient Australian wine label founded in 1849. This is a family-owned winery that showcases the richness of the Barossa Valley terroirs through its wines. Samuel Smith, the founder of Yalumba, understood the Barossa valley's potential, as soon as he set foot here. While planting the first vines here, he had the utmost respect for the land, and six generations later, Yalumba wines are still produced with a lot of respect for the region's terroirs.
