Yalumba, The Reserve, Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz, Barossa

No Reserve

Description

A bottle from a case stored in my underground Victorian cellar since removal from bond in December 2023. 'The Reserve' bottling was Yalumba's flagship Cabernet Shiraz blend and last appeared with the 2006 vintage and was since superseded by 'The Caley' from 2012. The 1998 'The Reserve' is still drinking beautifully and has several years to go yet.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate: 98/100
An awesome wine, only made in the greatest vintages, is the limited production 1998 Shiraz/Cabernet The Reserve. A blend of 71% Cabernet Sauvignon and 29% Shiraz aged 22 months in small foudres as well as French Bordeaux barrels, is truly great stuff. A black/purple color is accompanied by gorgeous aromas of sweet saddle leather, blackberries, creme de cassis, melted licorice, camphor, and graphite. Full-bodied and pure with a massive, layered mouthfeel, this striking 1998 should drink well for 20-25 years. (Robert Parker - Wine Advocate #148)
