Description

First released in 1962, Yalumba The Signature is a rich, complex and generous 100% Barossa blend of Cabernet Sauvignon & Shiraz that is uniquely Australian. Bought on release from and stored in perfect conditions at the Wine Society until drawn down last month, since when it has been in my Eurocave.
Vivino mark this as being in the top 1% of wines in the world.

CAMPBELL MATTINSON 94 POINTS!
'Two years in oak, then two years in bottle prior to release ' it's a lovely approach. There's something old-fashioned about the flavour of Yalumba's Signature red blend ... and I mean that in the most positive of ways. As a young-ish wine there isn't a great deal to it ' but then, it's made to be aged. It has a lovely mix of dusty, briary, curranty flavours and more robust, chocolatey oomph, the blend of cabernet and shiraz leaning towards the former in terms of flavours, though with excellent support. It has fine tannin and enough flavour ' though there's also an (attractive) sense of lightness here. If you usually like Yalumba's Signature blend you will like this ' it's not overdone, it's medium-bodied in a classical way. '

'The 2005 Signature is a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon and 46% Shiraz aged for 22 months in French, American, and Hungarian oak, 31% new. Purple-colored, it emits an alluring perfume of cedar, leather, spice box, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. On the palate it shows off an elegant personality, incipient complexity, succulent fruit, ripe tannin, and a pure finish.'
