  NobleRottersSydney - Yarra Yering (Fix, St James, Sydney): {screwcap, 13.5%} Shiraz 95%, mataro 3%, viognier 1%, marsanne 1%. Marsanne & viognier skins added to the ferment. Very similar wine to the 2018, but with the red fruit reticent, tobacco and apricot flavours to the fore. Medium weight and length of finish, soft powdery tannins.

  A wonderfully bright and highly perfumed nose of violets, red fruits and dark cherry. It is deep in the mouth and fleshy, yet by no means heavy. There are savoury undertones and a finish that is long and possessing real crunch.

  JH 99. Needs decanting if drunk in 2020/2021. Vibrant colour, cherries and berries. Very complex, great nose, smooth finish. Excellently balanced

  This is a fantastic Rhone blend. Something that Australia, and the Yarra should feel really proud in having made. Very well poised, great balance, super intense with layers and layers of complexity that go into a long finish - it's a great wine that will only develop further over the next 10 years.

  Quite reserved at this time but given its pedigree, I expect it will emerge with time.
