Yeringberg, one of the Yarra Valley’s oldest and most revered family estates, has been crafting distinctive, small-batch wines since the 19th century. Revived by the de Pury family in the 1970s, the estate has become known for its restraint, precision, and artisanal winemaking. The Yeringberg Shiraz is a refined, cool-climate interpretation of the variety — aromatic, savoury, and structured — reflecting the estate’s commitment to authenticity and elegance.
Vineyard
The Shiraz vines are planted on Yeringberg’s elevated slopes overlooking Coldstream, rooted in ancient volcanic and grey clay loam soils that naturally limit yields. These soils, combined with the Yarra Valley’s cool climate, produce Shiraz of spice, freshness, and mineral tension rather than sheer weight. Hand harvesting, low yields, and sustainable vineyard practices ensure the fruit expresses purity and finesse.
Vintage
2014 was an outstanding vintage in the Yarra Valley. A mild growing season, balanced rainfall, and long, even ripening delivered fruit with excellent concentration and structural integrity. Shiraz thrived under these conditions, developing lifted aromatics, fine tannins, and vibrant acidity. For Yeringberg, 2014 stands among the strongest and most consistent vintages of the decade.
Winemaking
The fruit is hand-picked and fermented in small open vats, with gentle extraction to preserve aromatics and texture. Maturation takes place in French oak barriques and puncheons, a modest proportion new, allowing spice and structure to integrate seamlessly without overpowering the wine’s elegance. Minimal intervention throughout reflects Yeringberg’s traditional and thoughtful approach to winemaking.
Tasting Notes
The 2014 Yeringberg Shiraz opens with expressive aromas of blackberry, plum skin, black pepper, violet, star anise, smoked meats, and subtle earthy notes. The palate is medium-bodied, savoury, and finely textured, offering layers of dark fruit, spice, graphite, and dried herbs. Silky, well-woven tannins and bright natural acidity lend definition, leading to a long, poised finish with cool-climate freshness. A beautifully composed, European-styled Shiraz with remarkable balance.
