The wine region of Yarra Valley

Australian showcase of cool climate (Victoria): signature Pinot Noir as king of reds (43%) — fine and fragrant with notes of cherry, strawberry, plum, undergrowth and a spicy touch, silky tannins, possible austere whole-bunch style. Refined Chardonnay (33%), taut and elegant with notes of citrus, white peach, fig and a touch of fine lees, vibrant acidity. Structured Cabernet in lower parts and traditional-method sparkling. East of Melbourne (1838), oceanic influence.
