Description
The Light Dry Red is Sarah Crowe’s playful nod to the so-called “Hunter River Burgundies” of the 1950s and ’60s – light, fragrant reds that were never Burgundian at all, but local Shiraz made for drinking young. Sarah takes that inspiration to the Yarra, blending Pinot Noir with Shiraz in a way that feels both nostalgic and distinctly modern.
The Pinot brings perfume and bright red fruits; the Shiraz, fermented as 100% whole bunches, adds spice, structure and a little savoury grip. Nine months in old oak ties it all together, keeping the fruit at the centre. The result is a red that’s lifted, silky and effortless to drink – the kind of wine that disappears quickly at the table - something that feels and tastes premium that you don't need to wait a decade to enjoy.
This is Yarra Yering at its most easygoing: fragrant, supple and made for right now. While the Dry Reds remain wines for the cellar, the Light Dry Red is Sarah’s invitation to open, pour, and simply enjoy.
