Yering Station Village Shiraz 2017

Overview

The Yering Station Village Shiraz is a finely balanced expression of the Yarra Valley, crafted from fruit harvested at its peak ripeness. The growing season was marked by early spring and a dry, moderate climate, allowed for optimal flavour development, resulting in a wine that showcases both freshness and complexity. This Shiraz reflects the winery’s dedication to producing wines of elegance and depth, with a perfect balance of fruit, spice, and tannin. The Village range offers a compelling introduction to Yering Station’s signature style, making it an ideal choice for both seasoned wine lovers and those discovering Shiraz from the region.

Tasting Notes

The Village Shiraz is characterised by ripe, expressive fruit, with flavours of dark berries and plums intertwined with savoury spice notes. The mid-palate is enriched by dusty tannins, which add structure and depth to the wine, creating a beautifully rounded mouthfeel. The fruit is well-supported by a subtle spiciness, which lingers through to the finish, where the tannins and fruit come together in a smooth, balanced conclusion. This Shiraz is a true reflection of its vintage, offering a wine of substance and finesse that will continue to evolve with age.
