The 2022 vintage of Yeringberg Cabernets asserts Yeringberg’s pedigree in crafting Cabernet Sauvignon that’s both expressive and refined. From the cool slopes of the Yarra Valley, this wine showcases the vineyard’s direction — fruit purity, structural tension, and cellar potential in perfect balance.
Aroma & Appearance
Pours a deep garnet with vibrant purple hues near the rim. The aromatics are focused yet rich: blackcurrant, red cherry, black plum, woven with accents of cedar, graphite, dried herbs, graphite dust, and subtle spice.
Palate & Structure
On the palate, this is sleek but serious. The wine delivers intense dark fruit core complemented by fine, powdery tannins and moderate, refreshing acidity. The oak is present but elegant — seasoned French barrels that frame, rather than dominate. Flavours of cassis, black cherry, blackberry skin, and dried herb lead into a long, measured finish with gentle grip.
