About The Pack
There are few wineries in the Yarra Valley with the prestigious history of Yeringberg. The de Pury family were pioneers of the region, having one of the first vineyards in the region over 100 years ago.
The original vineyard was ripped out when the damand for Australian wine slowed to a trickle, however the site was replanted in the 1970s and is one of the great sites of the modern Yarra.
The 2019 releases from this regional icon all come with excellent reviews from The Wine Front. It was a great season for this estate. This is a strictly limited edition pack.

The Yeringberg Shiraz takes on a more European styling with winemaker Sandra De Pury adding a splash of Viognier to bring her Shiraz to life.
It's a smooth, seductive style of Shiraz showing ripe blue fruits and a lilting aromatic lift provided by the white grapes.
If beefy, high alcohol Shiraz is your thing, perhaps look for another option. However, if you have a penchant for more refined expressions of the grape then walk this way.

93 points
"Autumnal, savoury and kind of amaro-laced. I’m thinking poached strawberry, cherry, spice and cedar, with a distinct sappy/sour blood orange tang, fine-grained but firm tannin, and a fresh red-fruited finish of good length. Plenty of character. I like it."
- Gary Walsh (The Wine Front)

Yeringberg Chardonnay straddles the magic sweet-spot between a bold, traditional toasty Chardonnay and the modern fresher styles in the variety that the Yarra Valley has become known for.
Winemaker Sandra de Pury walks that flavour ripeness perfectly. Plenty of toasty new oak is used in fermentation and ageing, some stiring to incorporate the leesy, creamy goodness that batoage brings.
It's a classic style of Chardonnay - one for traditionalists and contemporary wine lovers alike.

In 1983 the CSIRO brought the first cuttings of Roussanne into this country.
The de Pury family planted them alongside some pre-existing Marsanne and more than thirty years on, this tiny vineyard produces one of the country's greatest examples of this classic Rhone-inspired white blend. The wine is matured for around 8-9 months in old oak yet maintains amazing freshness and structure. It is complex and layered without ever being overbearing.
It's a wine that develops wonderfully with a little age, every day it spends in bottle, it just looks better and better. The amount of this wine made every year is tiny. Given the quality of the producer, the vintage and the reputation and scarcity of this wine, it would make an excellent addition to the cellar of any fan of textural whites.

The Yeringberg Viognier is a relative newcomer to this iconic estate.
The fruit is picked at two stages, the first giving freshness, spice and vital acidity, the second and later pick bringing the generosity of flavour and the weight to the wine. The fruit is fermented wild in barrel and the wine is left to rest for a couple of years prior to release.
All efforts are taken to build complexity with restraint into this often overblown variety. It's a winning combination and one that Sandra de Pury is executing wonderfully.
