Yalumba Y Series Tempranillo 2022
Barossa, Australia
SUB$15 GLOSSY TEMPRANILLO SUPERBUY
4.5 STARS 90/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
90/100 'Premium' | Cameron Douglas MS
We have long championed this remarkable wee over-achiever and this modestly priced wine continues to be truly sensational value. The previous vintage of this gem took out a Trophy win at the 2022 NWWAs along with solid reviews from the usual suspects, and we're sure that this new vintage will follow suit.
The Y Series wines from Yalumba represent some of the Southern Hemisphere's best buys and this glossy tempranillo is clearly no exception. It's a very moreish style with flavours in the black plum and blackberry spectrum - a supple, and confident wine that's made to be enjoyed with tapas, pizza or chargrilled flavours.
Vegetarian and vegan friendly.

Tasting Notes
Plush blueberry fruit with a classic mocha-choc tannin profile. A moreish wine to be enjoyed with tapas, pizza or char-grilled red meats.
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "It's brightly expressed on the nose, showing sweet plum, dark cherry, olive and warm spice aromas, followed by a silky-smooth palate offering beautifully rounded mouthfeel, combined with supple texture and polished tannins, making it friendly and delightfully appealing."
Cameron Douglas MS writes "Aromas and flavours of cherries and plums, there’s a light layer of clay earthiness then a tobacco and herb note. Crisp and dry with flavours on the palate led by plum with a mixed berry compote profile. Fine easy tannins and plenty of acidity for texture and length."
The distributor writes "Bright crimson in colour. Aromas of rose petal and lavender with a hint of peppery spice, dark cherry, mulberries and dark plum. One taste and the wine draws you in with mulberry, dark cherry, wild berries and dark chocolate with a hint of cinnamon. A bright and juicy Tempranillo with smooth, lingering, cocoa powder tannins on the finish."
