Enjoying some wine with Santa on Christmas eve.
2 hour decant (moderate chunky/fine sediment). A prodigious dark crimson with some bricking. On the nose: beautiful notes of red cherry, cigar box, cedar, little barnyard funk, herbaceous. Taste: old school and elegant! with black plum, red currants, scorched earth, cedar, crushed stone, and tobacco. YUM! In a nice place with the decant and still time to go. — a month ago
Very bold blend with fruit forward taste. Very good after taste also. If you want a full bodied red blend this is definitely for you. — 3 months ago
This is designed for those that love strong, peppery, fruity and earthie touch. — 12 days ago
Very fresh. Decant for 2 hours and serve cool.
Amazing start to finish. — a month ago
after 10 years, still a little tight upon opening, but opened up nicely with a little air.  tannings, and fruits still doing their job. — 2 months ago
Took about 2 hours to open up. A touch oaky at first and too much body but became balanced after awhile. — a month ago
Really enjoyed this one. Perfect dryness for us to be savory wine. — 2 months ago

This full bodied wine leans towards savory, but also gives red fruit, meaty flavors, stewed fruit, and dried herbs. This wine speaks to me in a Chateau Musar kind of way.
Yarra Yering is one of Australia’s most iconic wineries. The 2010 Dry Red Wine No 2 is a unique blend consisting mostly of estate-grown shiraz (95%), with small portions of viognier, marsanne and mataro. It is described as sort of an Australian riff on an old-school Cote-Rotie. I call this one delicious.
