Yalumba Y Series 2007 Shiraz Viognier
Yalumba Y Series 2007 Shiraz Viognier - cola, cherry, clove and tobacco. Not a good match for spaghetti - too acidic, even with a cold!

Wine Madam
Started my mission on March 15, 2010. Taste one wine each day for one year and tell people about it. It's a tough job, but...
I plan on writing the good, bad and the ugly about each wine I taste. I may have selected the wine, my husband may have selected it, or I may have obtained a bottle through other legitimate sources. I will be tasting each wine with whatever I happen to be eating at the time. Sometimes, this may lead to great pairing discoveries! And others will yield very disappointing results. Yet whatever the tasting experience, I promise to report fully on my findings and hopefully, others can learn from both my successes and failures to find the perfect wine and food pairings.
If I have information on where you can find these wines, on-line or on the shelves of my favorite shops, I also promise to share the information with all who read my posts. If you have a suggestion for me to try, please leave a comment and I will try to fit it into the line-up.
Wish me luck!
