Yalumba Wyndy’s Last Stand Barossa Shiraz 2020

The name. Well, Wyndham Hill Smith –  Wyndy as he was known by all – father of Robert, was both a first-class cricket player and leader of this great family-owned estate. It is a nice tribute to one of the great figures in Australian wine. This vintage turned out to be very good in the Barossa and little wonder this value for money red delivers way above its price. Aromas of coffee and spice with primary ripe plummy characters. The palate is seamlessly integrated with a fine grainy tannin thread balancing the oak and the plush sweet fruit flavours. There’s a bright cola-like red fruit character edging in too.
