2023 Village Pinot Noir, Yering Station
Yarra Valley, Australia
An elegant, cool-climate Pinot Noir with a perfume of spiced red berries, a pure core of cherry fruit, and subtle savoury characters interwoven with red fruits through to a silky finish.
Situated just 45 kilometres east of Melbourne, the Yarra Valley is a large and diverse cool-climate wine region. Its elevation spectacularly ranges from lows of 50m to heights of 1,250m, due to the influence of the Great Dividing Range. The region is characterised by significant rainfall during winter and spring, which helps to nourish the vines throughout the dry, but cool summers.

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.
Fermentation took place with selected yeasts in an open fermenter, with skin contact lasting for 10 days. The wine was racked to French oak barrels, ranging from new to eight years in age, where it underwent 100% malolactic conversion and spent 10 months maturing.
