Yarra Yering Agincourt 2023

Perfumed with lifted violets, mulberry and raspberry leaf. A refreshing berry fruit profile melts into and complements the savoury characters. Nettle with its earthiness and a cool leafy lift enhance the savoury clove spice element. The vibrant acidity, a result of the Malbec component, brings an acid crunch to the wine. A wine of wonderful fruit purity, savoury texture with some mocha warmth.

WINEMAKING Hand harvested; the Cabernet is destemmed, berry sorted, then crushed into half-tonne open fermenters. A small amount (5%) was whole bunch fermented for extra lift and perfume. Malbec is destemmed into small fermenters and hand plunged twice daily. Maturation in French Bordeaux-shaped barrels, 10% new oak to enhance the juicy fruit palate and immediate enjoyment.
