A profound reflection of a great site, showcasing its fine minerality and savoury complexity. Fragrant and black with dark fruits over dark choc oak. An enticing case for single site Barossa. Tyson Stelzer, Gourmet Traveller WINE
This is a distinctly ripe southern Barossa style from a 75-year-old vineyard. It smells of black and red-berry fruits, and is quite pure and assertive. Rich, swarthy tannins and abundant black-fruit flavours; the palate's full of intensity yet it's tempered by the wisdom of old vines. Nick Stock, "70 Reds to Remember", Gourmet Traveller WINE
This Fromm Vineyard single site shiraz from Yalumba is grown in the Lyndoch sub-region of the Barossa Valley. It's outstanding in its style. A sweet, sure, beautifully ripened shiraz that takes sweetness and oomph to high readings, but remains elegant and controlled throughout. Sweet blackberries, violets, blueberries and creamy, vanillin oak. Lovely length. Toasty, coffeed aftertaste. Delicious. Rated: 94 points; Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front
Yalumba's latest foray into single site releases is testimony to the fact that this company is no one trick pony. From the Fromm vineyard in Lyndoch, this is a remarkable expression of single site Shiraz, with profound black cherry and plum fruit of great vibrancy, texture and length. 95 points; Tyson Stelzer, Wine Business Monthly
This Lyndoch Shiraz hails from 75 year-old vines and delivers impressive concentration on the nose-aromas of ripe blackberry and some lighter red fruit fragrance are all nicely captured. The palate's full of juicy, ripe tannins that carry old vine balance, density and depth. 95 points; Nick Stock, Wine Business Monthly
A swarthy, ripe and generous style from the southern end of the Barossa Valley, this Lyndoch shiraz hails from 75-year-old shiraz and delivers impressive concentration on the nose - aromas of ripe blackberry and some lighter red fruit fragrance here, all nicely captured. The palate's full of juicy, ripe tannins that carry old-vine balance, density and depth, plenty of ripe black fruit flavour here too. Evenly paced and set to really impress in years ahead. 95 points; Nick Stock, The Penguin Good Australian Wine Guide 2010
Rich, dark mocha bouquet, with tar and earth, and an abundance of ripe blackberry fruit; the palate is dense and chewy, plenty of toasty oak providing a framework for the fruit to weave through; suprisingly elegant and poised on the finish; the muscle on show is quite impressive, and completely in balance. 95 points; James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2010
