What a neat little surprise packet we have here! This "Lighter Cuvée" is a new addition to the bargain Y Series range. Most light wines are flavourless and boring, but not here people. With only 7% alcohol and 50 calories to its name, I'd happily recommend this bottle of fizz.
It's a wine with a delightful bready and pastry texture that sits at the core. Lemons, apples, cut pear, lemon rind, some citrus flowers and white lilies build an attractive aroma profile but it's the width and interest that flows through to the mouth that has me leaning in. 14 grams of residual sugar is balanced well in the frame. And only 7% alcohol they say? If you are watching your intake, the four standard drinks per bottle may be the catalyst to tip you over the edge to give it a try. I suspect you'll find it well below its RRP too making this a terrific buy. Well done to the team at Yalumba for bowling down this beauty.
Drink now.
