Concentrated, rich, deep and simply magnificent. Excellent fruit, heady aromas all spiced up, some charcuterie and florals. It works along a more savoury line and the fuller-bodied palate feels glossy and smooth, with precision tannins lightly silty and the invigorating acidity dutifully falling in place: add all that together and it makes for an outstanding wine.

Tuerong, Mornington Peninsula.The fruit was handpicked and gently de-stemmed into traditional oak open fermenters. A small portion of whole bunches (10%). After 10-14 days on skins, the wine was pressed into tight grain 500L French oak puncheons for malolactic fermentation and maturation. The wine remained in oak for 11 months and was racked once during maturation.
An impressive drop, the Yabby Lake Single Vineyard Syrah is complex and polished. Bursting with herby, spicy aromas, you can also detect notes of licquorice and black pepper. It tastes of berries red and black, nuts and a hints of graphite. Perfectly paired with a juicy filet mignon.
