"Tasted at the 'One Family Tasting' at the Imagination Gallery. This is very pure and sensuous on the nose: blackberry, raspberry leaf, a touch of mulberry and a little cedar, all very refined. The palate is smooth, beautifully balanced with exquisite poise. Dark cherry, fruitcake, damson and a touch of anis, elegant and refined towards the delineated finish. Top class."

"The 2004 The Signature is composed of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon and 46% Shiraz. It was aged for 22 months in French, Hungarian, and American oak, 50% new. Opaque purple-colored, it presents a perfume of pain grille, earth, tar, vanilla, pepper, blueberry, and blackberry. Opulent on the palate, it has gobs of ripe fruit, complexity, superb balance, and exceptional length. It will improve over the next 8-10 years in the cellar and drink well through 2030."

"There was a long period when the Signature was Yalumba's top red, and while there are a couple of wines that now outrank it in price, it's still arguably the best all-purpose wine in the portfolio. It's certainly reliable. This spends two years in oak, and a further two years in bottle, prior to its release. It's fifty-five per cent cabernet sauvignon. It's strong with minty, mulberried fruit flavour, the mintiness making the wine's ultimate blackberried depth remain fresh and fragrant. Toasty oak sits in the background. Lively acidity. It should age like a charm."

"The Signature 2004 is an impressive example of Barossa cabernet and shiraz with plenty of big, ripe Barossa fruit with solid American and French oak. It's built for the long term and this has years in it." Ray Jordan, West Weekend Australian
