Sourced from low-yielding estate vines planted on ancient, low-fertility soils, Dry Red No. 2 reflects Yarra Yering’s uncompromising focus on site expression and longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"866\" data-end=\"1181\"\u003eIn the winery, fruit was handled with restraint, using traditional fermentation techniques and gentle extraction to preserve perfume and fine tannin structure. Maturation took place in French oak barrels, predominantly seasoned, allowing savoury complexity and textural depth to develop without overt oak influence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1183\" data-end=\"1593\"\u003eWith significant bottle age, the wine now shows a beautifully evolved profile. Aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, and plum are layered with notes of white pepper, dried herbs, floral lift, earth, leather, and subtle game. The palate is medium-bodied and finely structured, with resolved yet persistent tannins, bright acidity, and a long, savoury, harmonious finish that speaks to both provenance and patience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1595\" data-end=\"1759\"\u003eDrinking superbly now with careful decanting, the 2008 Yarra Yering Dry Red No. 2 will continue to hold and evolve gracefully for many years under proper cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1761\" data-end=\"1886\"\u003eA truly iconic Australian red and a must-have for collectors seeking maturity, finesse, and classical Yarra Valley character.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52884626112875,"sku":"SK48264501","price":207.69,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5483\/8635\/files\/2008_Yarra_Yering_Dry_Red_No._2_750ml_dd31c27f-ffc4-4eea-913e-d1f69e9264b5.png?v=1780389388","url":"https:\/\/kingsburycellars.com.au\/products\/2008-yarra-yering-dry-red-no-2-750ml","provider":"Kingsbury Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
