Released with additional bottle age from Yalumba’s Museum Collection, this wine showcases the evolution of one of Australia’s benchmark Cabernet Sauvignons. The outstanding 2016 vintage delivered concentration, balance and structure, qualities that have allowed the wine to develop impressive complexity while retaining its hallmark freshness. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"600\" data-end=\"1147\"\u003eOn the palate, it is elegant and beautifully composed, with flavours of blackcurrant, blackberry and cassis layered with notes of cedar, leather, mocha and dark chocolate. Mature bottle development has introduced savoury nuances of tobacco leaf, bay leaf and earthy spice, while fine-grained tannins provide structure and length. Aged for 22 months in a combination of French, Hungarian and American oak, the wine finishes long and refined, with classic Coonawarra graphite and lingering dark fruit character. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1149\" data-end=\"1667\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1149\" data-end=\"1174\"\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1174\" data-end=\"1177\"\u003eAt Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding choice for lovers of mature Australian Cabernet Sauvignon. The additional bottle age has brought greater harmony and complexity, while the wine still retains the freshness and structure to reward further cellaring. Drinking beautifully now with decanting, it will continue to evolve over the next 10–15 years. Pair with roast lamb, beef Wellington, chargrilled rib-eye, mushroom dishes or aged hard cheeses. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mt-3 w-full empty:hidden\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eInfo\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"846\" style=\"height: 152px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 277.253px;\"\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 267.017px;\"\u003eAustralia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 277.253px;\"\u003ePRODUCER\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 267.017px;\"\u003eYalumba\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 277.253px;\"\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 267.017px;\"\u003eCabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 277.253px;\"\u003eSTYLE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 267.017px;\"\u003eRed Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 277.253px;\"\u003eVINTAGE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 267.017px;\"\u003e2016\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 277.253px;\"\u003eSIZE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 267.017px;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Yalumba","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51316547387707,"sku":"YALMEN166MUS","price":77.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/6779\/7699\/files\/2016YalumbaTheMenziesCabernetSauvignonMuseumRelease.jpg?v=1780645883","url":"https:\/\/winemore.com.au\/products\/2016-yalumba-the-menzies-cabernet-sauvignon","provider":"Wine More Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
