Yalumba Shiraz Patchwork 08

$23.30 750 MLS

The 2008 is only the fourth release of The Patchwork' label, designed to bear more than a passing resemblance to ‘The Octavius’ super-premium Shiraz, and offer immediacy and startling affordability. Despite the heat-wave vintage, winemaker Kevin Glastonbury has fashioned a lovely, elegant, modern-style Shiraz, with fine, ripe black fruits, spices and pepper, that has excellent aromatic lift and finesse. The tannins are stylishly supple and help carry the palate flavours through the long finish. Though elegant in structure, the wine is still archetype Barossa, the fruit from a ‘patchwork’ quilt of diverse sites adding up to a most complete wine. Wild yeast fermented to 13.5% alc, and aged 6 months in 15% new American and French oak. Drink over the next 4-6 years, and match it with a flavoursome steak. RC Feb 10
