TASTING NOTES FOR Yeringberg Cabernet Blend Yarra Valley Victoria 2019

🍷 Appearance
Deep ruby red with a vibrant crimson edge. Bright and refined, showing both concentration and elegance.

👃 Aromas
Highly perfumed and complex, with cassis, blackberry and plum layered with violets and floral lift. Notes of bay leaf, cedar, tobacco and subtle graphite add classic Cabernet blend character.

👅 Palate
Medium to full-bodied and beautifully composed, delivering blackcurrant, red plum and mulberry. The blend shows finesse and balance, with bright acidity and a seamless integration of fruit, oak and savoury elements.

🍈 Texture & Finish
Fine, powdery tannins provide structure without heaviness. The texture is silky yet structured, finishing long, fresh and persistent with lingering red and black fruits and a subtle savoury edge.

🍇 Overall Style
A classic Yarra Valley Cabernet blend—elegant, structured and age-worthy. Typically a five-variety Bordeaux-style blend, combining depth, refinement and complexity with a distinctly cool-climate freshness.

🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with roast lamb, beef, duck or mushroom-based dishes. Also excellent with aged cheeses and refined, savoury cuisine.

🥂 BBD Verdict
A benchmark cool-climate Cabernet blend—polished, complex and built to age. A premium addition to straight dozens or a standout inclusion in a top-tier Better Buy The Dozen mixed selection.
