Yarra Yering Dry Red N°2 2020 is crafted by Yarra Yering, one of the oldest estates in the Yarra Valley, founded in 1969 by Dr. Bailey Carrodus. This Shiraz is inspired by the great blends of the northern Rhône Valley. Sourced mainly from vines planted in 1969, co-fermented with small proportions of Viognier (3% Mataro and 1% Viognier). Aged for 15 months in French barriques (30% new). The 2020 vintage yielded wines of great aromatic concentration.

On the nose, deep and aromatic, with a dark garnet color. Concentrated notes of redcurrant, satsuma plums, and blackberries with hints of fennel seed, olive tapenade, dark chocolate powder, and a light vanilla from the oak. On the palate, a complete wine with its tart dark black cherry fruits, a light savory nuance, and very fine, firm tannins providing the structure to age well into the decade and beyond. Pairs with herb-braised beef or a roasted rack of lamb.
