Wine Without Wank - Yalumba Sauvignon Blanc Premuim Selection 2008

Yalumba Sauvignon Blanc Premuim Selection 2008

Made by Yalumba in Australia.

A dry, still, white wine with 12% alcohol tasted on 28th Oct 2009.

Grape: Sauvignon Blanc

Quality: Unpleasant

Value: Ouch!

Cost: Usually between $12.99 - $15.99.

Looks: Very light and clear with real flashes of green

Smells: Grass and underripe apples

Feels: Light

Tastes: This perhaps is a harsh rating, but this wine did not agree with me. Harsh yet light - acids are ripping and grassy yet never really give way to much in the way of a redemming fruit character. It is possibly a little old for a cask release - fruit has retreated somewhat and harsh acid is left.

Possible retailers: Vintage Cellars, BWS, Woolworths Liquor, Liquorland, Dan Murphy's, Kemeny's, 1st Choice.
