Every parcel is treated with reverence: whole berry ferments for fragrance, open-top fermenters for texture, a mix of new and seasoned oak, and one third of the Cabernet gets the royal treatment with eight weeks on skins in a 3,500L oak cask.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a glorious wine. A wine of depth and quiet power. Dark fruit, fine tannins, just enough grip, and a savoury undercurrent that builds with every sip. It’s polished, but not flashy - in every sense a benchmark of the famous Yarra Valley Cabernet wine style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a wine destined for great things. Winemaker Sarah Crowe knocked this out of the park. It should be an essential part of any serious Australian cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"A blend of 60\/24\/11\/5% cabernet sauvignon\/merlot\/malbec\/petit verdot, the cabernet coming from the original 1969-planted vineyard. Matured in barrique (35% new). A deep crimson purple; almost opaque. Uber classical cabernet aromas with its core of concentrated and pure blackcurrant and cedar. Throw in hints of bay leaf, some gravel and a little sea spray and you have a pretty special Dry Red Wine No. 1. It's richly fruited and elegant with perfectly integrated, supple and persistent tannins. An altogether sumptuous and majestic wine.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Philip Rich (Halliday Wine Companion)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47060435271915,"sku":"SK25821508","price":141.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/1022\/0779\/files\/2021_Yarra_Yering_Dry_Red_No._1_750ml_52350dcd-11c6-404c-920d-89ba34794835.jpg?v=1763083312","url":"https:\/\/lionscellar.com.au\/products\/2022-yarra-yering-dry-red-no-1-750ml","provider":"Lion's Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
