So excited to give these wines a run in a couple of weeks time. The 47th vintage of The Signature - the Louisa Rose. I did not quite realise what this wine truly meant to Yalumba till a recent chat with @jesshillsmith and @kgjam - all well covered recently by @byjamesatkinson in @drinksadventures_au . What will the 2016 vintage bring? #wine #instawine #aussiewine #barossavalley #cabernetshiraz #yalumba #TheSignature #vintage2016 #louisarose

And Chardonnay is definitely one of those grapes where the country has a bright future ahead as a world leader, particularly from Tasmania. Loved the Dalrymple Pinots, but the Chardonnay was the star - fine, detailed and beautiful. #wine #instawine #aussiewine #tasmania #tassiewine #chardonnay #pipersriver #aussiechardonnay #dalrymple #dalrymplevineyards
