Tasting Notes
The 2021 edition of our Bordeaux blend has just about everything in just the right measure - elegance, structure, depth, complexity – and most of all, it’s wine to be enjoyed, today, tomorrow and for as long as you might choose to keep a bottle. On the nose, cool, pure and inviting aromas of blackcurrant, violet, plum and black olive, merge with notes of tobacco leaf, cedar, mint and graphite. The palate, initially fine, savoury and restrained, builds depth and richness, with wonderfully fine but firm tannins, silky, supple generosity, and an understated power and breadth that all comes together on the effortless, but imposing finish. Drink now, and well into the future. - Sandra de Pury
Guill de Pury grew up beside the out-of-operation 19th-century winery in Coldstream where a lack of interest in fine table wines had caused production to cease in 1921. In 1969, Guill and wife Katherine decided to replant the vineyard and start again, and gradually restored the reputation of this great Australian estate.
Guill has since handed over chief responsibility for the wines to daughter Sandra de Pury. Sandra initially worked as a chef in Hong Kong after previous experience in kitchens and a period of study in hotel management in Switzerland. She then enrolled in an MBA program at the university of Melbourne, during which she won a scholarship to the University of Chicago. This was followed by a five-year stint as a jet-setting problem-solver with a Melbourne-based management consultancy.
Eventually her family heritage caught up with her and she succumbed to the wine bug. She completed a degree in oenology on her way to becoming fourth-generation winemaker at Yeringberg, where she views her art as 'the perfect combination of intellectual, physical and sensory engagement.
