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.

A combination of natural and inoculated ferments, then racked to hogsheads (30% new) and with 30% mlf. A bright green gold. Expressive, with a tangerine, lemon peel and almond-scented bouquet. A little chalkier and more restrained on the palate than the ’22, this very nicely balanced and structured wine should age gracefully over the next five to seven years at least.

Aromas of preserved lemons, salted nuts, stone fruit, river stones and apple blossoms. The palate is medium-bodied with focused acidity and lovely depth of flavor, finishing with a slight phenolic grip. Very pure and giving, with underlying freshness. Classic and delicious.
