The Halliday Wine Companion 2022 results are in, and we are thrilled to announce that The Caley Cabernet & Shiraz 2016 has been awarded Cabernet Shiraz of the Year, receiving 99 points!
The Caley is the Pinnacle of a long winemaking journey of excellence, that rightfully honours one of Yalumba’s most adventurous sons. A blend of Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon and Barossa Shiraz, The Caley is a classic marriage of two noble varieties and two great Australian Wine Regions. A fabulous wine!
Cabernet Shiraz of the Year – 2022 Halliday Wine Companion Awards
“Yalumba began blending Coonawarra cabernet with Barossa Shiraz more than a half-century ago. This is one of the greatest expressions of this great Australian blend of recent decades. Perfect, compact, fragrant blackcurrant and blackberry fruit depth pauses time as it hovers motionless for minutes, propelled by the most intricate, chalk mineral framework of perfectly interlocked fruit and French oak tannins. A vintage to hark back to for another half-century yet.” Tyson Stelzer, Halliday Wine Companion 2022, 13 August 2021
