Yalumba SC Barossa Bush Vine Grenache

With 170 years of unbroken independence, Yalumba continues to make wine at its founder’s home estate under direction of the same family today.

Samuel’s Collection honours Yalumba’s founder Samuel Smith, his spirit of independence and conviction to invest in the land and make great wine.

The fragrance is saturated with brooding plum red fruits, dark cherries and perfumed berries. This is a defined wine showing the richness and concentration of the vintage. The palate is richly textured, fleshy, round and supple, with a red juiciness that merges into velvety tannins.

With good winter soil moisture, the vines grew happily through the warm spring and dry summer months.

These conditions led to an even bunch set and a healthy vine canopy. Through summer and into autumn, the Grenache vines held their fruit in great condition while the weather remained dry and warm. This led to grapes with intense varietal Grenache flavour.
