Overview:
A masterful expression of Yarra Valley terroir, the Yarra Yering Dry Red Wine No. 1 is a structured and deeply complex blend, crafted from the estate’s original 1969 plantings. This Bordeaux-inspired wine balances fruit power with refined elegance, promising both immediate pleasure and remarkable aging potential.
Tasting Notes:
Layers of dark berry fruits dominate the palate, complemented by subtle sage and a delicate herbal lift. Christmas cake spices intermingle with well-integrated French oak, adding depth and complexity. A bright acid drive enhances the wine’s vibrancy, while finely structured tannins provide a solid foundation for longevity. Brooding yet approachable, this wine will continue to evolve beautifully with time.
