2017 Yeringberg Shiraz

97% Shiraz, 3% Viognier. Our 2017 Yeringberg Shiraz is another wine of elegance and restraint. Cool, savoury and spicy, the nose reveals delicate notes of blueberry, spices and violet, progressing to liquorice and black pepper as time in the glass adds depth and lift to the bouquet. The palate mirrors the experience –savoury, minerally and quietly brooding, the spicy, earthy blue fruits sit within a framework of serious but fine tannins that gradually soften to add breadth and plushness to the long, driven palate. Tasted over several days, it’s a wine of real presence – always elegant, svelte & sophisticated, it’s certainly not going to be rushed and will richly reward patient contemplation as it evolves over the next 7-10 years.
