Yabby Lake Single Vineyard Syrah 2025
We craft a small selection of single vineyard and single block wines off our special site in Tuerong. Our focus is on pinot noir and chardonnay, but we also have small plantings of pinot gris and syrah.
Our philosophy is to craft single vineyard wines of great purity and character, reflective of our site and the season in which it was grown. It’s the attention and care in the vineyard that is most critical to allowing this expression.
The 2025 season saw a welcomed return of warm and extended summer conditions, producing full flavoured wines with impeccable intensity and balance. The fruit was handpicked on 12th April from Block 2 and 3 (sandy loam soils, over callabonna clay). Gently de-stemmed into traditional oak open fermenters. After 14 days on skins, the wine was pressed into tight grain 500L French oak puncheons for malolactic fermentation and maturation. The wine remained in oak for 11 months and was racked once during maturation.
Stored carefully this wine will age gracefully for ten years.
A perfumed and spicy Syrah, medium-bodied in style.
The palate is concentrated and silky, with finely structured tannins, bright fruit characters, wonderful elegance and depth.
