    Yalumba 2017 The Y Series Shiraz (South Australia)

    This is a cheap and cheerful Shiraz with lots of brightness and bounce, by South Aussie Shiraz standards anyway. It exudes ripe blueberries, grape jelly, crushed violets and a little white-pepper spice. The fruit is less overt on the palate, where the silky, medium- to full-bodied mouthfeel is supported by savory tannins. A dry, oaky note flares up on the finish.
