Founded by Baron Frederic Guillame de Pury in the 1860’s, Yeringberg is one of the Yarra’s first and finest wine estates. The Baron’s grandson Guill de Pury and his great-granddaughter Sandra are the current winemakers and their deep connection with the land is palpable. Rightly famed for their white Rhône varietals (no longer known as ‘White Hermitage’), specific sites in their tiny estate yield excellent results with other varieties all brought to fruition in their nation trust protected heritage winery built in 1880. After the region's near 50 year wine hiatus, Guill started replanting vines in 1969, making the first of the new generation of Yeringberg wines in 1974. YEringberg are the only Yarra winery still owned by the same samily as in the first chapter of the region. Sandra followed her iniital career as a chef with taking on the reins of the estate and the own-rooted vines planted by her father. “Yarra Valley pioneers, the de Pury family are renowned for wines of finesse and elegance that epitomise the finest the region can produce. Produced from some of the oldest vines in the valley, these are long-lived wines made in tiny quantities. Yeringberg makes wines from the low-yielding vines re-established on the heart of what was one of the most famous vineyards of the nineteenth century. In the riper years, the red wines have a velvety generosity of flavour which is rarely encountered, yet never lose varietal character, while the Yeringberg White takes students of history back to Yeringberg's fame in the nineteenth century.” - James Halliday

13% abv
Vol- 75cl
Restraint and elegance with flushes of ripe dark berry fruit and spice. Gossamer tannins support the fullness and supreme integration of fruit, structure and perfume. Cabernet Sauvignon 66%, Cabernet Franc 13%, Merlot 8%, Petit Verdot 8%, Malbec 5%.
The last few years have witnessed an almost imperceptible notching up in the seriousness of the tannin structure of this wine, which remains as it always has been, a classic Yarra blend of the Bordeaux varieties. A field blend, each variety is picked at optimum ripeness and fermented. Once all lots are finished the entirety is blended to age together as a ture representation of vintage and place.
