Yalumba's "The Octavius" Old Vine Barossa Shiraz 1997 is a celebrated Australian icon, crafted from some of the Barossa's oldest vineyards. Uniquely matured in Yalumba's handmade American oak octaves-small 90-liter barrels seasoned for eight years-the wine achieves harmony between oak and fruit. The 1997 vintage, marked by challenging heat, saw these ancient vines deliver concentrated flavors emblematic of The Octavius style. Deep cherry red, the wine boasts aromas of licorice, cherries, violets, and black olives, complemented by vanillin oak. The palate reveals sweet berries, rich plums, and grainy tannins with a warm, peppery finish. Ideal for cellaring 10-15 years.

Excellent

I was a bit skeptical because of the very competitive pricing....
The wine arrived to me in a couple of days, great packaging..bottles kept well and everything as described, of course aged wines are always a risk
I recommend the site

Great service, fast and professional!

I ordered three vintage bottles, quick service and package prepared with great care and attention! I really appreciated the handwritten thank you note, really nice! So far I opened only one bottle (see photo) and found it to be in really good condition. I will definitely place more orders in the coming days!

More than excellent service

Starting with an endless selection of bottles, from the most to the least expensive, but still the prices are very honest for the products traded.
Old vintages are maniacally checked, so far I have not found one out of shape!
Highly recommended!
Moreover, shipping is immediate and hassle free!!!
