2021 Yering Station Reserve Shiraz Viognier, Yarra Valley

Fabulously bright and youthful in the glass. Lifted and fragrant aromas of blueberry, cola, pepper, spice, pot pourri, sweet florals and nutty oak. Fresh, lively and really crunchy and punchy on the palate. Lashings of blue fruits, spice, anise and bramble. Lovely mouth-feel, weight and texture. A mid-weight, cooler-climate shiraz of real sophistication and absolute seamlessness 09 JUL 2023 Drink 2023–2038

Co-fermented with 2% viognier and matured for 15 months in 21% new French barriques and puncheons. A deep-ish crimson ruby. Just so fragrant with its aromas of red and blue fruits, florals, allspice and a hint of incense. This medium-bodied and beautifully poised wine caresses the palate before finishing with persistent well-knit tannins that are a good reminder that, as delicious as this is now, it's also been built to last.
