Today, the blend evolution includes modern Cabernet clones 412 and WA Cape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHand 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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"Deep, brilliant and youthful looking purple colour; bell-clear cassis and mulberry aromas, cabernet fruit driving the wine. Violets, blueberries galore. Beautiful flavour and balance, all delivered with great elegance. Delicious wine which already drinks superbly, and will no doubt do so for many years.\" - 96 Points - Huon Hooke, The Real Review\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"A blend of 70\/30% '95-planted cabernet\/'90-planted malbec. Matured in French barriques (10% new). A medium bright crimson purple. Complex aromas of black cherry, blackcurrant, pencil shavings and potpourri spices. Good depth on the medium-bodied, finely tuned and gently crunchy palate. Lingers nicely and will give pleasure earlier than the '22.\" 95 Points - Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"In flavour terms this leans heavily on cabernet. It’s a mid-weight, fresh, leafy red wine with plum, boysenberry, leafy herbs and mint running persuasively throughout. Cedarwood oak plays a minor but positive role, and from start to finish it feels both pure-fruited and perfectly well balanced. The charm factor is high here, as is the impression that tannin, tension and the wine’s assorted tastes and textures have all been arranged just so. The length of the finish here, infused with green olives characters, is of particular note.\" 94 Points - Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yarra Yering","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50446185332982,"sku":"14555-1","price":115.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0451\/6580\/5731\/products\/Image_1223_09d67e58-707b-4ced-b96f-4469d3e87823.png?v=1742975108","url":"https:\/\/edcellars.com.au\/products\/yarra-yering-agincourt-2023","provider":"Edinburgh Cellars ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
