"The Yalumba "The Signature" Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz 2012 is a luxurious red wine. Almost blood red, this is a Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz in motion, changing and shifting from red scents of black currants and cranberries to the black fruits of plum compote and black cherries, before a touch of cedar, leafy herbs, and powdery black spices freshen the finish. The wine has a coolness that belies its power. The expression is as restrained as it is muscular. Richly layered, the fruit completes the structure. Underneath, there’s an umami earthiness, like scents of camping in the woods. The wine is impeccably balanced. Savour with a rosemary pepper beef rib roast with porcini jus."
