2018 Yarra Yering Sparkling Cuvee

The 2018 Yarra Yering Sparkling Cuvée is a refined and elegant traditional method sparkling wine from the Yarra Valley, crafted with a focus on finesse, balance and complexity. Made from classic Champagne varieties, it reflects extended ageing and meticulous winemaking, resulting in a sophisticated and expressive style. The nose is delicate yet complex, showing citrus zest, green apple and white peach, layered with brioche, toasted almond and subtle pastry notes from lees ageing. Fine floral hints and a touch of minerality add lift and precision.

On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a creamy mousse and vibrant acidity. Crisp citrus and orchard fruit flavours are complemented by savoury, toasty nuances, leading to a long, clean and elegant finish. The style is poised and harmonious, combining freshness with depth and texture.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a premium Australian sparkling for customers seeking Champagne-like quality at excellent value. It’s perfect for celebrations or as a refined aperitif. Drink now or over the next 5–8 years. Ideal with oysters, seafood, canapés or light appetisers.
