Yarra Yering produces several different styles of wines notably their Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc blend (Dry White Wine #1), Cabernet Blend (Dry Red Wine #1), Underhill (Shiraz) and even a Touriga Nacional blend (Dry Red Wine #3), among others. Dr Bailey Carrodus unfortunately passed away in 2008, but will always be remembered as a pioneer in the Yarra Valley, where he founded Yarra Yering in the 1960s. He first completed a degree in horticulture and then later another degree in winemaking. Another of his passions was wines from Portugal, Spain, France and Italy, which saw him embark on a journey ending with some Touriga Nacional as the most "odd" in its vineyards. As it is the end of the year, we wanted to give you the opportunity to try a very special wine with some bottle age.
Why do we like it?
The 'Dry Red Wine No.1' is considered a cool(ish) climate Cabernet, and one of our favourite within the range, a bit more precise and silky, made by Sarah Crowe, this is so good! Expect a ripe wine with refined tannins, with lots of dark fruit left and plenty of intensity of aromas. Expect it to be long and lively. Showing all the beauty and nuance of a delicious youthful Cabernet Sauvignon. Make sure you pull up your best piece of Wagyu beef!
