The Wanderer Yellingbo Yarra Valley Pinot Noir 2025
Region: Yarra Valley, Victoria
Variety: Pinot Noir
Country: Australia
Vintage: 2025
The Wine
A single-vineyard expression from Yellingbo, on heavy grey clay soils at 180 m. 100% destemmed, wild-fermented in open fermenters, and aged for 11 months in seasoned large-format French oak. Unfined, unfiltered, and estate-bottled.
Cellared says
This Pinot shows Yellingbo’s forward structure—The richer of the two white labels and the most immediately appealing/seductive. Lithe, sweet fruited up front with a touch of undergrowth. Nice tannin grip well balanced against the fine acid line. Exceptional value.
Reviews
"This is a beautiful if slightly understated Pinot Noir. It arguably needs another year or two in bottle but the savoury underpinning and general purity of fruit – combined with immaculate tannin structure – will hold it in excellent stead. Roasted nuts, fresh black cherries, woodsy spice notes and the aforementioned undergrowth; all the right boxes are ticked here."
