96 Points – 2025 Halliday Wine Companion

Varietals: 85% Semillon 15% Chardonnay

White pear flesh and grapefruit citrus characteristics from the Semillon, Chardonnay brings some stone fruit flesh and greater middle palate weight and a softness from maturation in neutral oak barrels.

A granny smith green apple tang driving the acidity with a lovely chalky texture to finish.

Both Semillon and Chardonnay were hand harvested, chilled in a cool rom overnight and whole bunch pressed. This gives us the finest juice with minimal phenolics or grip. Fermentation in old oak barrels lending weight and texture.

Vines: Fruit for this wine was sourced from a dry grown block south of Underhill Vineyard, slightly higher in elevation. A Bordeaux inspired white blend of Semillon and Chardonnay.

Cellaring: A bright and refreshing young wine on a summer’s day. The real beauty here will come from some cellar maturation. The magic of Semillon will shape this with time into a toasty and deeply layered mature wine. Rewarding careful cellaring for up to 8 years.

About Yarra Yering

Yarra Yering is one of the oldest and most beautiful vineyards in Victoria’s Yarra Valley. Established in 1969 by Dr Bailey Carrodus, the 1973 vintage saw production of the first vintage of Dry Red Wine No. 1 and Dry Red Wine No. 2. Yarra Yering quickly gained an international reputation for quality and individuality and paved the way for other Yarra Valley wineries.

Sarah Crowe, Winemaker / General Manager

Sarah began her wine career in 2001 when she joined Brokenwood in the Hunter Valley, initially working in the vineyard. After completing her first vintage in 2002, she enrolled in a Bachelor of Applied Science in Viticulture. The proceeding years saw her working international harvests from Oregon to the Rhone Valley.

Sarah joined Yarra Yering as Winemaker in late 2013, later going on to win the prestigious James Halliday Winemaker of the Year in 2017, and the Gourmet Traveller Winemaker of the Year in 2021. Sarah plays an active role in the wine community, and is known for her generosity in helping others through her work at the Len Evans Tutorial Program and as a respected wine judge at high profile domestic and international shows.
