Yulumba The Cigar Cabernet Sauvignon Coonwarra

A Bold Expression of Coonawarra Terroir

Tasting Notes

Deep, brooding, and unmistakably Coonawarra, this Cabernet Sauvignon is packed with rich blackcurrant, plum, and dark cherry aromas, layered with hints of cedar, tobacco, and chocolate. The palate is full-bodied and structured, with silky tannins supporting a core of ripe fruit, spice, and well-integrated oak. A long, refined finish carries echoes of espresso, graphite, and subtle mint—a signature of the region’s famed terra rossa soils.

Perfect Serve

Best enjoyed at around 16–18°C after a little time to breathe. This powerful yet elegant Cabernet is an excellent match for grilled ribeye, slow-cooked lamb, or a selection of hard cheeses like aged cheddar.

Crafted with Precision

Named after the famous ‘Cigar’ strip of Coonawarra’s prized terra rossa soil, Yalumba’s The Cigar embodies the best of this renowned Australian wine region. Aged in a combination of French and American oak, it balances bold fruit character with savoury complexity, showcasing both craftsmanship and a true sense of place.
