Yalumba The Octavius Shiraz eJournal

Yalumba The Octavius Shiraz is connected to the earliest beginings of South Australia’s wine industry. This eJournal explores the wine that epitomises the ambitions of the Hill-Smith family, where storied history, craftsmanship and modernity offer something special and unique in the world of wine. It includes a full vertical tasting from 1988 up to the yet to be released 2020 vintage.
