South Australian winery, Yalumba, has released the second round of its Museum Release collection, introduced last year as part of the company’s 175th anniversary celebration.

This year’s collection also welcomes The Tri-Centenary Grenache, an expression of Barossa Grenache from ancestor vines spanning three centuries.
