Yarra Yering Dry Red Wine No.1 2018

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 ageing 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.
