A collectors’ guide to The Caley
-
Decanting The Caley
For optimum drinking, we always recommend decanting fine wines. Decanting The Caley will give the wine a chance to attain a stage of development that normally requires years of aging. -
When to drink
Built to spend many years in the cellar, The Caley takes time to reveal its true character. The wine will drink beautifully today or in 5 – 30 years. -
Glassware
Every aspect of The Caley is enhanced when the ideal glass is used. The Riedel Veritas Cabernet Shiraz glass was crafted in collaboration with Riedel in 2012 for The Caley’s inaugural vintage release. -
A note on cork
At Yalumba, we remain fervent supporters of high grade cork closures for select wines. Learn more about natural wine closures and how best to store wines under cork.
