General: I am a big fan of Yalumba wines. They offer good wine at a reasonable price. This was a delight on a warm summer's night.
Variety: Viognier
Region: South Australia
Alcohol: 14.5%
Bouquet: Tropical. Fleshy and white. Lychee was the main fruit I identified among the pungent, dense nose.
Flavour: Fresh, fruit driven and semi-sweet. I liked the lychee flavours.
Points: 83
Notes: An excellent wine, nicely chilled for this warm summer evening. At $9.00 (148 Kc) it's unpretensious, good quaffing stuff. I have checked the Yalumba website and the tasting notes describe the flavour as "honeysuckle" which I have never tasted before. Something for me to try. Also note that Marks and Spencer sometimes use Yalumba wines for their branded wines and they offer good value.
