This really is a Viogner, not the Merlot. Quite tasty. — 12 years ago
Lots of mint on the nose (69% Cabernet Sauvignon; 31% Shiraz) together with blackberry. On the palate plenty of drive and power in this Cabernet Shiraz blend - layers of fruit, oak and spice. Rich and full bodied - the perfect accompaniment for a vintage Porterhouse steak - Waygu marbelling. Oak has integrated since the tasting 5 years ago. A pity that it takes 20 years for Yalumba’s Signature red to reach its peak but probably true. Interestingly the wine is matured for 22 months in American, French and Hungarian barrels coopered at Yalumba. This was the last bottle from a dozen originally purchased. — 7 months ago

Wow. Absolutely terrific offering from Brewer-Clifton. At 11 years, this has an incredible nose of spiced rhubarb, dried strawberries, and a sagebrush undertone that adds terrific complexity. Has the classic spice one picks up from the Melville Verna's pinot, but is much more subdued and integrated into the wine, adding to its complexity. Wonderfully balanced, this wine probably has several more years of life left but is drinking beautifully right now. Probably the best Brewer-Clifton I've had. — 10 years ago

This is my current favorite everyday wine. Smooth, well balanced, not too heavy and a great value! — 11 years ago
I got this on a whim and a college budget for Valentine's Day. Both my partner and I thought it was not too bad for $7-- I liked the notes of citrus balanced by the dryness. If I were making mimosas I would definitely go for this. — 12 years ago
Chenin Blanc. Very sophisticated. — 12 years ago
