Description
Yering’s flagship Pinot Noir. Only made in the very best years, using only the very best parcels of fruit. The Reserve wines epitomise time, place and effort in the purest of forms. Their very best expression of variety, viticulture, location, season and winemaking. This wine comes from a barrel selection of the best batches from Blocks Y07 and Y13. The fruit was carefully treated, gravity-fed into small open fermenters, and gently plunged and pumped over. Maturation was in French puncheons (about 16% new) over 10 months.
Tasting Notes :
It’s a silky, fine, and effortless wine beginning with an exotic mix of cherry, plum, and bright red fruits on the nose. Lots of spicy strawberry notes and even a touch of crunchy red apple on the palate, with a faint, muted background of light truffle. Fine but firm tannins and precise chalky acidity support a wine of tremendous power and remarkable elegance.
