Y Series Sauvignon Blanc
Yalumba is Australia’s most historic family-owned winery. The Y Series collection combines authentic Australian winemaking practices with a vibrant approach inspired by modern flavors. While simple and contemporary at first sight, the bright labels show subtle layers when considered closely. Each varietal features a unique illustration symbolizing the relationship between the wine and nature.
Grown in some of South Australia’s pre-eminent viticultural regions, the Yalumba Y Series Sauvignon Blanc has both freshness and complexity. The wine shows true expression of place with the use of only indigenous yeast, no oak and minimal winemaker intervention.
Wine Production
Grapes arrive during the cool of the night, they are gently crushed into tank and given 12 hours skin maceration prior to draining and pressing. Wild yeasts then initiate and complete fermentation. Once complete, the wine is left on its lees and given regular bâtonage to build complexity until blending.
All Y Series wines are made with wild fermentation and the winemakers take a minimalistic approach with human intervention. The resulting wines are natural, vegan, gluten free and met by complex flavors that represent Yalumba's rich history of winemaking.
Tasting Notes
Pale golden straw in color with green hues.
Aromas of passionfruit, white flowers and freshly cut grass with an underlying creaminess. Lemon, citrus freshness, coupled with generous tropical and passionfruit flavors follow through to a crisp, lingering finish.
Food Pairing
This wine drinks perfectly with barbecued calamari salad and a citrus dressing, or crispy lemon fried tofu.
