Yalumba Paradox Barossa Valley Shiraz 2019 (Australia)
Yalumba Paradox Barossa Valley Shiraz 2019 (Australia)
Description
- French oak
- Dark cherry & plum
- Chocolate & vanilla
- Soft & plush
Deep scarlet red in colour. Rose petals, plum, chocolate and cassis aromas leap from the glass. After some time hints of vanilla cream, olive tapenade and sweet oak spice reveal themselves. The palate is soft and plush with loads of dark cherry, plum, chocolate and espresso coffee that leads to an elegant finish of fine tannins.
A cool winter with lighter than average rainfalls. This mild, dry weather through the growing season produced grapes with great flavour and concentration. Summer was full of sunshine and warm dry weather, this kept berry sizes small and was great for ripening them. The resulting Shiraz is a wine of structure, flavour and concentration.
The northern area of the Barossa Valley has some of the oldest landscapes in the Barossa. At 200 million years old, these bed rocks have formed the soils in which the grape vines grow. It is also one of the early grape growing areas of the Barossa with many generational growers who are both traditional and attune to the needs of making their vineyards sustainable with modern viticultural thinking.

The Paradox is not what you might expect from a wine from the northern Barossa. It’s not the high octane, lots of new oak stereotypical northern Barossa Shiraz, but rather a softer, more gentle velvet-like and savoury style of wine.
Food Pairing: Enjoy with mushroom and thyme risotto or char-grilled rib eye with roast potatoes and green beans.
