Yarra Yering Dry Red No. 1, Yarra Valley, Australia 2016 Chateau Mazeyres This has a very vibrantA very reserved, elegant and regal nose, showing subtle yet confident aromas of freshly picked blackcurrants, lead pencil, cassis, dried herbs, cedar, iodine and crushed stones.

A blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, malbec and petit verdot. 98 Pts James Suckling
