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.

Bordeaux Blend

The 2011 vintage had a hard act to follow coming after two exceptional years in Bordeaux and whilst the wines aren't as showy as the '09's and '10's they are charming and drinking beautifully with a decade in bottle.

Bordeaux Blend

Chateau Saransot-Dupre is a favourably sited 17 hectares property that lies between Fourcas Dupré and Fourcas Hosten in Listrac.  Due to Listrac’s cooler temperatures, Merlot and Cabernet Franc are favoured over Cabernet Sauvignon to form the majority of the blend, helping them achieve optimum ripeness.  Much like Chateau Fourcas Hosten, the wines have improved year on year since 2010 and the property were put on the radar thanks to a certain Robert Parker hailing the 2010 vintage as 'classed growth quality'.  High praise indeed!

Rhone Blend

This relatively young family owned Domaine was created in 2001 by vignerons with 4 generations of vinegrowing and winemaking expertise under their belts.  They own some seriously old vines in superb sites in the Southern Rhone on a mixture of soils of red sand, clay and the classic 'Galet' pebbles associated with Chateauneuf du Pape.  As a result, their wines posess a wonderful depth and concentration.
