Very pale straw in colour with green hues. Aromas of freshly cut grass, grapefruit, geen apples and white blossom with hints of fresh herbs, lemon rind and a touch of flint from the wild ferment. The palate is vibrant, bursting with life and zest. Flavours of lemon drop and passionfruit butter join the flavours from the nose, with zesty acidity on the lingering finish.

In 1847 a 37-year-old brewer called Samuel Smith left his home in Wareham, Dorset with his wife Mary and their four children. Boarding a simple three-masted barque they left Plymouth and began the long and arduous journey to Australia, arriving in Port Adelaide. From there they trecked north to Angaston where Samuel took a job as a gardener. It was arguably this brave decision to start a new life in a remote and distant land, together with the hardship that they endured, that formed the strong sense of family unity that has been the bedrock of the family business ever since. In 1849 he started the wine farm that would grow over the next 5 generations to become one of Australia’s leading wineries, with a winemaking culture that is internationally recognised and respected. To embrace the native culture, Samuel decided to adopt a local name for his farm, calling it “Yalumba” meaning “all the country around’’ in the indigenous Peramangk language.
