The Yalumba Hand Picked Single Site wines are made to express the significance as well as the individuality of standout terroirs from within Yalumba growers vineyards.
This 2005 Single Site Lyndoch Shiraz comes from the Fromm family vineyard on the northern outskirts of Lyndoch. This Shiraz block, known as the old Block 1, was planted in 1935 and produces a distinctly ripe southern Barossa style.
It smells of black and red-berry fruits and is quite pure and assertive. It’s rich and dense with lovely meaty fruit. Liquorice and spice with pepper and integrated toasty oak that adds another spice dimension. Quite savoury and showing it’s from a cool climate vintage. There is sweet fruit too- black cherry, raspberry, plum and cassis with hints of mint.
