Yarra Yering
Underhill Shiraz
Yarra Valley, Port Phillip, Victoria, Australia
#AgedWineTuesday
Dark ruby/ Inky in color with a wide reddish rim.
Beautiful nose with blueberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, spices, cedar, licorice, cola, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, rhubarb, light vegetables and black pepper.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry and fruit forward on the palate with black currants, blackberries, cedar, sweet cherries, plums, tobacco leaf, eucalyptus, figs, light vanilla, earth, Indian spices, black pepper and coffee.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a delicious Shiraz from the Yarra Valley in Australia. Tasty and easy drinking. Fruit forward and nicely balanced. Showing lovely complexity on the nose.
This 14 year old is peaking now, and will continue to drink nicely in the next few years.

Feels like a Napa Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend. Very interesting.
Thank you Scott for sharing this with me.
I did not decant it, but let it open in the bottle. Good right out of the bottle, and gets better after 90 minutes of airtime.
100% Shiraz grapes were handpicked, and aged for 12 months in large oak barrels.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
93 points.
$70.

This wine is pure funk. Black olives and balsamic wrapped in rocks. The nose can be a lot to get passed but man this is something else. Haven't tried many wines quite like this. It's almost like a port without any sugar. Funk it up.

This was fun. Dark and brooding, balanced and elegant. Black fruits, licorice, white pepper.
