The 2023 Yarra Yering Pinot Noir is a graceful and expressive example of cool-climate winemaking from one of the Yarra Valley’s most iconic producers. In magnum format, this wine gains added dimension and longevity, revealing its fine structure and aromatic depth over time.
Vineyard and Winemaking
Fruit is sourced from Yarra Yering’s original estate vineyards, planted on gravelly loam and clay soils that encourage low yields and concentrated flavour. Small-batch fermentation was carried out with a portion of whole bunches to enhance perfume and texture. Gentle hand plunging and maturation in fine-grained French oak barriques, a small percentage new, preserved balance and purity.
Tasting Notes
Delicate yet complex aromas of red cherry, cranberry, rose petals, and forest floor unfold with hints of spice and fine cedar. The palate is silky and precise, offering layers of red fruit, savoury herbs, and subtle earthy tones. Elegant tannins and bright acidity carry the wine to a long, seamless finish with remarkable finesse.
Style and Character
This vintage captures the essence of Yarra Yering Pinot Noir—refined, aromatic, and beautifully detailed. The magnum format allows slower maturation, enhancing texture and aromatic complexity, ideal for collectors and fine dining cellars alike.
Cellaring and Pairing
Enjoy now for its youthful vibrancy or cellar gracefully for 10–15 years. Best paired with roast duck, mushroom risotto, chargrilled salmon, or truffle-infused poultry dishes that mirror its layered depth and delicacy.
