At the Yalumba tasting. This is the new cuvée and very ambitiously priced I might say at $350. It is obviously a very good wine with soaring aromatics. Very primary blue and purple fruits with a combination of both Coonawarra and Barossa Cabernet together with Barossa Shiraz - naturally from all of the best blocks Yalumba could access. Apparently this fruit previously went into The Reserve. Perfectly balanced such that you could happily drink The Caley now but like all great wines will easily cellar for a couple of decades. Yalumba have obviously thought that if Grange and H of G can charge $800+ then why not have a Super Cuvée at $350? You be the judge.
