Processing the following day along a fruit sorting table and destemmed gently into our signature small fermenters. Some whole bunches were used to contribute subtle stalk structure and a generous fruit profile. Working of the ferment by gentle hand plunging twice daily contributes to the soft fruit palate along with gentle pressing. Maturation for 10 months in all French barrels with 30% new and the balance older oak.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eTasting Note\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"Some whole bunches, a gentle hand plunging twice a day and 10 months in barriques (30% new). A fabulous crimson purple. Gently brooding with its aromas of dark cherry and raspberries together with scents of roses in full bloom and a little sous bois. Medium bodied and very persistent on the beautifully structured and intense palate. This will need some time, but your patience will be fully rewarded.\" \u003cstrong\u003e97 Points\u003c\/strong\u003e - \u003cem\u003eHalliday Wine Companion, Philip Rich (2025).\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yarra Valley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52376980979993,"sku":"9821","price":155.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/7831\/0937\/files\/IMG_3442.jpg?v=1778555651","url":"https:\/\/nationalwinecentrestore.com.au\/products\/yarra-yering-pinot-noir-2023","provider":"National Wine Centre of Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
