After changing hands several times throughout the early-to-mid 1900s, Yering Station was purchased by the Rathbone family in 1996. Yering continues to be a family owned and operated winery dedicated to producing wines of quality and distinction. The Rathbone family is committed to providing an environment that allows its passionate young team to thrive.
For this wine grapes were sourced from prime vineyards in Australia's cool Yarra Valley. After careful temperature controlled fermentation the wine aged 9 months in oak barrels.
This Pinot is a Wine Enthusiast Magazine "Editors' Chioce" and selected #44 on their Top 100 Wines of 2018. They scored it 92 points saying "Complex and earthy, this wine knits flavors of hot stone, tobacco, Morello cherry, and green peppercorn onto a palate of ultrafine, leathery tannins and beautifully poised acidity. This is an elegant and multifaceted wine."
