A complex and beautifully balanced Pinot Noir, with layers of fresh and dried fruit, toasty, nutmeg spice and earthy notes, which seamlessly flow like fine silk through to an everlasting finish.
2021 was an excellent vintage. The cooler growing season, with perfect day and night temperatures, resulted in lovely natural balance. No manipulation in the vineyard was required, this vintage has produced some of the best fruit the vineyard has seen.

Description
With vines being first planted in 1838 by Scottish-born Ryrie brothers, Yering Station was the first vineyard in Victoria State. The brothers acquired 17,400 hectares and planted two grape varieties at the time -‘Black Cluster’ and ‘Sweet Water’. In 1850, the site was sold to a Swiss-French immigrant, Paul de Castella. He increased the vineyard by a further 20 hectares, sourcing vines from around the globe including some from Chateau Lafite. A jewel in the Yarra Valley crown, Yering Station produces world-class cool climate wines from its revered vineyards which are famously abound with expressive varietal flavour and integrity.
The flagship Pinot Noir, only made from the best grapes, in the best years. The Pinot Noir grapes were fermented in an open fermenter with a combination of wild and selected yeasts, lasting 10 days with skin contact for 10 days to impart refined structure, flavours and aromas. It was racked to 500-litre French oak puncheons, of which 15% were new, where it spent 10 months maturing.
