Yalumba Hand Picked Shiraz Viognier 2016

94 POINTS

James Suckling

This has attractive spice and complex, fragrant aromas with a stony edge, as well as violets and blueberries. The palate has a delicious core of fresh dark and red berries with a chocolate edge and a very polished tannin texture. Good freshness at the finish, too, with long, blueberry and blackberry flavors. Drink or hold.

Campbell Mattinson - The Wine Front

This is minty, meaty and well-flavoured. In fact it has all the fruit and volume that you would expect, not to mentioned the general engagement, but it has more going on that you might have predicted. It’s both a complex red and a generous one. It feels as though it’s been intricately crafted. They’ve done well here. It’s very good.
