Description

Underhill is the more extroverted side of Yarra Yering Shiraz, generous, expressive and immediately appealing. Sourced from a single block planted in 1973, it delivers both power and charm. A mix of whole bunch and whole berry ferments, along with careful oak maturation, brings balance and polish without losing its natural vibrancy. A benchmark cool-climate Shiraz from one of Australia’s great sites.

“From a shiraz vineyard planted in ‘73 adjacent to Yarra Yering. 10% whole bunches and matured mainly in puncheons (15% new). Perfumed with aromas of cherry, cassis, a floral nuance and freshly ground black pepper. On the palate this medium-bodied and elegant wine is a little more compact and precise than the Dry Red No. 2. The tannins are superfine and persistent and, while this may not quite have the staying power of the previous two vintages, it will still age gracefully for a decade, if not two!” 97 Points - Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion
