"Fabulously fruited and immediately appealing with rockmelon, apricot, fig and dried flower notes, it's succulent and supple on the palate delivering excellent fruit purity and persistency. Silky, fleshy and highly enjoyable" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2021

"Fragrant nose of sliced oranges, papayas, apricots and honeysuckle. Fleshy and fruity, with a full body and creamy, ripe stone fruit. Simple, but pleasing. Vegan. Drink now" James Suckling, Nov 2022

Luscious aromas of violets, apricot and marzipan with hints of white pepper and freshly picked herbs. Flavours of raspberry and redcurrent frame the well balanced palate which shows excellent structure, lovely light tannins and a persistent finish.

The wines of the 2021 vintage are that of balance, style and exceptional varietal characteristics. Good late winter and spring rains ensured the vine canopies grew well. Optimal flowering conditions provided the ideal environment for fruit set. Summer was mild with below average daytime temperatures and cool nights that led to the development of fabulous colour, pristine aromatics and flavours with good natural acidity.

Y Series is a collection of iconic classics and exciting new varietals. Each wine is authentically crafted with fruit from South Australia’s most celebrated wine regions. At Yalumba, we believe that one good wine leads to another. Y Series was created with that belief in mind. We look forward to sharing our love of wine with you as you explore the Y Series.

Food Pairing: Delicious with cacio e pepe (spaghetti with pecorino and black pepper) or mushroom, leek and carrot potstickers.
