2021 Yeringberg ‘Yeringbergâ€?Cabernet Blend 750ml

A blend of 58/14/14/9/5% cabernet sauvignon/cabernet franc/merlot/petit verdot/malbec. Matured 20 months in French barriques (35% new). Bright crimson purple. From a great year, this is a beautifully fragrant and seductive Yeringberg with its aromas of blackcurrants, blueberries, cherry blossom, violets and just the right amount of oak-derived cedar and pencil-shaving scents. The epitome of medium bodied, it’s elegant, discreet and persistent on the palate, even at this early juncture. Equally important, the fruit is perfectly framed by the wine’s fine-grained and silky tannins and, as has been demonstrated on many occasions, this will mature slowly and gracefully. 98 points. Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion Aug 2023
