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 Pinot Noir grapes were fermented in an open fermenter with a combination of wild and selected yeasts, lasting 10 days. The wine went through malolactic conversion, resulting in a softer mouthfeel. It was racked to 500-litre French oak puncheons, of which 17% were new, where it spent eight months maturing.
