Yering Station's Shiraz Viognier is crafted to techniques which are similar to those employed by the old world winemakers who developed this unique style. The art of Shiraz Viognier is a process the Yering Station team continue to enjoy and refine with each new vintage.
Co-fermentation of Viognier skins and Shiraz berries, picked to a similar time frame, the extraction of aromatics, colour and flavour profile, makes for a superb and edifying wine that has found a home away from home in the ideally suited, temperate climes of Yarra Valley.
Awards and Accolades
2013 Vintage: 95 Points - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion "Bright hue; red cherries and spices play tip and run on the expressive and inviting bouquet; the palate texture a mix of silk and taffeta, the juicy gently spiced red fruit flavours a sheer delight. A first class now or later style"
2013 Vintage: 93 Points - Campbell Mattinson, Wine Front "Yering Station’s “standard” Shiraz Viognier is still delivering the goods. Immaculate wine. Succulent but stern with tannin, plum-drenched but creamy and floral. Spice in the background. It feels, smells and tastes good, and also has a bit of gravity. It will develop, well, over quite a long time – in the way that well-balanced, mid-weight, well-composed reds have a tremendous tendency to do."
