The Yeringberg Shiraz 2022 is a wine that speaks of elegance, finesse, and a quiet confidence—a perfect example of how Sandra de Pury has shaped this varietal at Yeringberg. Unlike many Shiraz expressions, this wine embraces a perfumed, finely structured, and poised character. A blend of three distinct clones—PT23, 1654, and a ‘100-year-old’ selection—each contributing its own unique complexity, the 2022 vintage benefits from low yields, which produced intensely flavoured fruit.
Handpicked and fermented with 15 days on skins, this wine showcases the subtle interplay of rich fruit with aromatic enhancements from a small addition of frozen Marsanne skins. The result is a wine with aromatic layers of blueberry, dark cherry, violet, white pepper, and a touch of Moroccan spice, complemented by a palate that is both supple and structured. The wine matures for 20 months in French oak (30% new), polishing the wine to reveal a complex savoury depth with a slight ferrous quality beneath the plush fruit. The finish is lingering, with fine, powdery tannins and a vibrancy that’s unmistakably Yeringberg. A wine that rewards patience, the 2022 Shiraz embodies Sandra’s touch, creating a wine that confidently showcases the best of Yeringberg—elegant, layered, and thoughtfully crafted.
