'04 Yalumba Shiraz Viognier

[Innkeeper]

We popped an '06 tonight ($10.99 NH Liq Store). Alcohol level: 14%. It is the "Y" series, and is much the same if not better than ever. Floral fruit on the nose and upfront, more fruit with pepper and spice in middle; and a lovely finish.

We matched it with charcoal grilled (no rain) lamb steaks that had been marinated in mint and lemon mayonnise; yellow squash nuked with onion, EVOO, s&p, fine herbs, and grated parmesean; and baked potato.
