Hand harvested grapes placed in a blast chiller overnight before whole bunch pressing. This gives us very high quality juice, 24 hours settling before transferred to French oak barrels; some 228 L barriques and some 500L puncheons, 30% new oak. Both wild yeasts and cultured yeast were allowed to carry out the fermentation offering complexity and a hint of struck match.

Natural acidity was retained by inhibiting malolactic fermentation.

Maturation for 10 months in our cool underground cellar before blending and bottling.

Tasting Note: Finesse combine with pillowy fruit weight, this is a wine that is fine boned with citrus flavours dominating in its youth. A citrus energy drives the palate with a pithy interest and texture on the back palate. An extremely fine grained oak tannin framework lingers on the finish.

Yarra Yering

Yarra Yering, an icon from Victoria, Australia, has been built on the basis of giving individual vineyard blocks, and grape varietals, the time and
attention they deserve. This effort ensures that Yarra Yering continue to make high-quality wines and maintain their enviable reputation.

Although wine was an important industry in the Yarra Valley throughout
the 1800s, by the 1920s it had largely halted as farmers moved onto other crops. It took the vision of the legendary Dr Bailey Carrodus, to help re-establish the Yarra Valley as one of Australia’s pre-eminent wine regions.

After several years of careful research, he settled on the Yarra Valley as the ideal site and in 1969 he purchased land at the foot of the Warramate Hills. He named his vineyard Yarra Yering and in 1973 produced the first vintages of his now iconic Dry Red Wine No. 1 and Dry Red Wine No. 2.
