Description

The Yarra Yering Dry Red No.1 is an Aussie classic and comes from a winery that is regarded as one of the country’s finest.  The Dry Red No.1 is a Bordeaux style blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot, 12% Malbec and 5% Petit Verdot, all of which are hand harvested, and hand sorted to ensure only the finest berries make the final blend.  The Cabernet is crushed prior to fermentation whilst the other varieties are fermented whole and all are vinified seperately.  The wines are then matured seperately in French Oak (40-50% new), and blended prior to bottling. 


Medium-bodied, complex and yet approachable with lovely freshenss.  Dark fruits, baking spice and herbal notes on the nose lead to a beautifully balanced palate that shows more of the same alongside fleshy, fresh acidity.  Genuinely joyful to drink now, this fabulous red will continue to evolve for 20+ years from vintage.

2023 Beaujolais Villages ‘Cuvee Six’, Caves De Julienas Chaintre

Gamay

The Beaujolais Villages 'Cuvee Six' from Caves De Julienas Chaintre just gets better and better with each vintage, showing soft, rounded red fruits and vibrant cherry flavours.  Complex enough to make one sit up and think yet easy going and supple at the same time.  Great for lighter lunches and it can also be chilled lightly when the weather warms up!
