Vineyard information
This Barossa Shiraz is made from
grapes grown by longer term, loyal
growers. Their love of their farms is
demonstrated in the generosity of this
wine. Vine age, trellising, soils and
aspect all vary across the region and
each site adds its own dimension to
the final blend.
Yalumba has been making premium red wine under the
Galway name since the 1940s. The release of Yalumba
Galway Vintage Traditional Shiraz 2011 marks 69 years of
Galway. Galway was named in honour of L.T. Col. Sir Henry
L. Galway, K.C.M.G., D.S.O, who was governor of South
Australia from 1914–1920. He was a keen wine man with a
good palate and a regular visitor to Yalumba in Angaston.
The success of the early Galway reds became the base on
which all Yalumba reds were developed. Today, Galway is
still made to a traditional style with rich colour, distinctive
spicy fruit and perfectly integrated oak. It is an elegant,
full bodied wine with 5–7 years cellaring potential.

Andrew La Nauze
Growing up in the Barossa Valley
inevitably led to an interest in all
things wine for Andy, but this was
not where he initially began.
A career in Radiography was
considered yet short lived when he
found he was being drawn back
towards the thing he loved – wine.
Andy embarked on further study,
finishing a BA Agricultural Science
Oenology at Adelaide University in
2001. Various vintages with St Hallett
in the Barossa, Norfolk Rise at
Mt Benson and a season in Alsace
served as his apprenticeship.
Keen to return to the Barossa Valley,
Andy joined Yalumba in 2004,
assisting winemakers Peter Gambetta
and Kevin Glastonbury with
crafting Yalumba’s red wines.
Today Andy is committed to crafting
the outstanding Yalumba Y Series
portfolio of wines, made from various
renowned South Australian regions,
displaying a balance of both regional
and varietal character.

winemaking /
viticulture
The grapes were fermented in static potters and rotary
fermenters. Warm temperatures at the onset of fermentation
and also 3-5 days post ferment maceration has helped
extract soft fleshy tannins and build wine structure.
vintage conditions
The 2011 season was cool, with consistent rainfall
throughout the season. Where vineyards were well
managed and winemakers were patient, the resultant
grapes benefited from the cooler season with lifted
aromatics and fine natural acidity.
This Shiraz shows all the hallmarks of a traditional
Barossa Red. It has a bright colour with crimson hues.
There are aromas of mulberries, ground spice and liquorice
allsorts that speak of its varietal and regional origins.
The palate is ripe and generous with flavours of mulberries,
dark chocolate and hints of beetroot. It finishes with cocoa
powder like tannins that give evenness and generosity to the
wine. Enjoy with Guinness and oyster pie.
Suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
