Yeringberg Pinot Noir 2021 (1x75cl)

Estate
Yeringberg has belonged to the de Pury family since 1862 and is one of the Yarra Valley's most historic properties. Production is roughly 1,200 cases a year. James Halliday Five Red Star (top 2%).

Region
The Yarra Valley is among Australia's coolest major regions and a heartland for Pinot Noir. Some of Yeringberg's vines are the oldest in the valley.

Variety & Style
Traditional in approach: red cherry and raspberry with earth, spice and a whole-bunch structural edge. Light to medium bodied, fine-grained tannin, acidity built for the long term.

What to Expect
This is not an open-and-enjoy wine. It asks for time, the right glass and a quiet setting. The very small production is part of the price — you are buying the rarity of a 160-year-old estate. If you want to drink tonight, Ashton Hills (#32 / #33) is the practical choice.

Serving
14–16°C, large glass, 30–45 minutes open. Duck, mushrooms, salmon. Cellars 10 years or more.
