Agincourt is Yarra Yering’s take on a classic Aussie claret, and the designed to be the bottle to reach for while the others rest in the cellar. Sourced from vines planted in the early ’90s, gently handled by Sarah Crowe and matured in mostly seasoned oak, it keeps the fruit front and centre. An elegant, early-drinking expression of Cabernet from one of Australia’s great vineyards.
“Deep, brilliant and youthful looking purple colour; bell-clear cassis and mulberry aromas, Cabernet fruit driving the wine. Violets, blueberries galore. Beautiful flavour and balance, all delivered with great elegance. Delicious wine which already drinks superbly, and will no doubt do so for many years. ” 96 Points Huon Hooke, The Real Review
“A blend of 70/30% '95-planted cabernet and '90-planted malbec. Matured in French barriques (15% new). A medium bright crimson purple. Complex aromas of black cherry, blackcurrant, pencil shavings and potpourri spices. Good depth on the medium-bodied, finely tuned and gently crunchy palate. Lingers nicely and will give pleasure earlier than the '22.” 95 Points - Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion
