Expert Reviews
Spent 12 months in French oak, and another 12 months in bottle prior to official release. Light crimson; the fragrant, red berry aromas lead into an intense, elegant and very long palate, juicy red berry fruit interwoven with satin tannins. A seriously lovely pinot that has benefited greatly from the extra 12 months since first tasted. Rating 95 - Drink by 2018 - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion (AUG/2012)
Winery Tasting Notes
Colour
Bright Ruby
Aroma
Intoxicating mix of exotic blue violet perfume, savory spice and briary frits. Subtle chocolate and cherry oak compliment this graceful Yarra Valley Pinot Noir.
Palate
Elegance personified. Rich red/black cherries coupled with a silky middle palate. These are the characters that winemakers dream of! Concentration and beauty only achieved in remarkable years.

Winery Profile
Red Five Star Winery - Australian Wine Companion 2014
The historic Yering Station (or at least the portion of the property on which the cellar door sales and vineyard are established) was purchased by the Rathbone family in 1996 and is also the site of the Yarrabank joint venture with French Champagne house Devaux (see separate entry). A spectacular and very large winery has been erected, handling the Yarrabank sparkling wines and the Yering Station table wines. It immediately became one of the focal points of the Yarra Valley, particularly as the historic Chateau Yering, where luxury accommodation and fine dining are available, is next door. Yering Stations own restaurant is open every day for lunch, providing the best lunchtime cuisine in the Valley. In 2008 Tom Carson moved on and was replaced by William (Willy) Lunn, a graduate of Adelaide University with more than 24 years cool climate winemaking experience around the world, including at Petaluma, Shaw + Smith and Argyle Winery (Oregon). Exports to all major markets.
