Product Notes

Yalumba Y Series Sauvignon Blanc is a classic example of what a refreshing wine should taste like. This wine has a pale yellow color, with a crisp and fresh aroma of tropical fruits, citrus, and grassy notes. On the palate, it displays an array of flavors, including peach, passion fruit, lemon, and green apple, finishing with a zing of acidity and a hint of minerality. The wine is made from premium grapes sourced from various vineyards around South Australia, and it was fermented in stainless steel tanks to retain its vibrant fruit flavors and clean finish. This wine is perfect for those who love a crisp and refreshing wine that is easy to drink and pairs well with seafood, salads, and light dishes.

Tasting Notes

Very pale straw in colour with a green hue. This Sauvignon Blanc displays lively aromas of freshly cut grass, grapefruit, Granny Smith apples and white blossom. There are nuances of fresh herbs and candied lemon rind with a touch of flint from the wild ferment. The palate is vibrant and bursting with life and zest. Flavours of lemon drop and passion fruit butter abound, with zesty acidity, making this an easy drinking and enjoyable wine that shows all the hallmarks of fruit driven Australian Sauvignon Blanc; line and length with generosity of flavour.

About the Winery

Yalumba

Yalumba is a rich and ancient Australian wine label founded in 1849. This is a family-owned winery that showcases the richness of the Barossa Valley terroirs through its wines. Samuel Smith, the founder of Yalumba, understood the Barossa valley's potential, as soon as he set foot here. While planting the first vines here, he had the utmost respect for the land, and six generations later, Yalumba wines are still produced with a lot of respect for the region's terroirs.

The winemaking practices at Yalumba are unique when compared to the other wineries in the Barossa Valley. The expert winemaking team at Yaluma doesn't shy away from experimenting and creating thought-provoking wines. Here, you don't just drink a glass of wine; you experience a historic winemaking story in each sip you take. If you follow an organic or vegan lifestyle, you will love the brand of Yalumba. 

Thanks to its natural winemaking techniques and wild fermentation processes, this company specializes in making organic and vegan wines. Smith purchased a 30-acre plot in Angaston, when he felt that the place had the huge potential to make different types of wines. He lovingly named his plot, Yalumba, which was an Australian word used by the indigenous tribes living there at that time. This meant, "all the land around" in English.

The small vineyard has now grown phenomenally. Currently, it is the most ancient family-owned winery in Australia.  Yalumba wines are made from grapes grown in Australia's best wine regions such as Barossa Valley, Eden Valley, Coonawarra, Limestone Coast, South Australia and Wrattonbully.

Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Merlot, Malbec, Mataro, Shiraz and Tempranillo are the red varietals used here. Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Riesling, Roussanne, Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Viognier are the white varietals used for making Yalumba wines. Grenache and Sangioveses varietals are used for making rose wines, while Muscat and Tawny are used for making fortified wines.
