Description

Yalumba 2021/22 Y Series Viognier
90 points James Suckling

Viognier is almost criminally underappreciated. The aromas and flavours are dazzling for a wine at this price point and, unlike some Viogniers, this is tangy and very refreshing. It’s a terrific choice for pairing with spicier fare.

“Fragrant nose of sliced oranges, papayas, apricots and honeysuckle. Fleshy and fruity, with a full body and creamy, ripe stone fruit.” – James Suckling

This award-winning Viognier is on the fresher, lighter end of the Viognier spectrum. It shows all the unique characteristics of this exotic variety, without being too rich on the palate.

Bright straw in colour with green hues. Aromas of orange blossom with fresh ginger, hints of honeysuckle and white flowers. Fresh apricot, white tea, dried figs, and fennel lead to a creamy mid-palate with a silky, textural finish.

Yalumba is a family-owned winemaker since 1849, showcasing the best of the Barossa. For six generations they have embraced the magnificent unknown, letting the land lead the way, and growing their vines with as little interference as possible.
