NV Yalumba "Antique Muscat", Eden Valley, Australia
ABOUT THIS WINE
The NV Yalumba “Antique Muscat” from Eden Valley (South Australia) is a sumptuous fortified dessert wine produced by Yalumba, Australia’s oldest family‑owned winery, established in 1849 and today managed by the Hill‑Smith family. Drawing from their rich tradition in fortified wines, Yalumba releases this wine occasionally as a “museum reserve” style from specially selected late‑harvest Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains grapes (including red, brown, and black mutations) grown in both Eden Valley and Rutherglen regions.
The wine is produced by fermenting shrivelled, partially raisined berries briefly on their skins to maximize flavor extraction, then fortifying with neutral grape spirit to halt fermentation and retain intense natural sweetness. It’s aged in hogsheads and barriques for up to 10 years, and vintage lots are blended to maintain consistency and complexity across releases. The result is a tawny-amber elixir.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
Founded in 1849 by British immigrant Samuel Smith, Yalumba is the oldest family-owned winery in Australia, located in the Barossa Valley (Eden Valley subregion), South Australia. The name Yalumba comes from an Aboriginal word believed to mean “all the land around”, a tribute to their deep connection with place. Yalumba has been a pioneer in sustainable viticulture for decades. Although not all wines are certified organic, Yalumba has led industry initiatives for environmentally responsible farming. Yalumba’s portfolio spans fortified wines, classic varietals, and flagship reds that highlight regional character. Their stylistic signature leans toward purity, balance, and restrained power, using French and American oak coopered in-house—Yalumba is one of the few wineries globally with its own working on-site cooperage.
