Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Brick red with pale hue. Nose of spice, black pepper, cherry and earth. Palate shows nice interplay of fruit and earth with black cherry, pepper, clove and rosemary. Some smoked meat flavors follow.

Professional Ratings

  • 90
    Lithe, focused and distinctive, with meat, mineral and peppery elements draped over the plum and blackberry fruit, coming together smoothly on the finish against lightly gritty tannins. Has depth and presence.

Seville Estate, Australia
Seville Estate Winery Image
Seville Estate is the ultimate quiet achiever in Australian wine, making very little noise but continually producing benchmark wines. Dr. Peter McMahon planted the vines in 1972, marking a rebirth in the Yarra Valley as a serious and quality wine region. By the end of the decade they, along with Mt. Mary, Yarra Yering and Yeringberg, had made the Australian wine drinking public take notice of the Yarra Valley.

Now grandson Dylan McMahon is at the helm as winemaker and the wines have never been stronger. Seville Estate continues to fashion dry, austere, mineral and acid driven Chardonnay, along with structured, herbal and spice laden Pinot Noir's and Shiraz.Yarra.

Marked by an unmistakable deep purple hue and savory aromatics, Syrah makes an intense, powerful and often age-worthy red. Native to the Northern Rhône, Syrah achieves its maximum potential in the steep village of Hermitage and plays an important component in the Red Rhône Blends of the south, adding color and structure to Grenache and Mourvèdre. Syrah is the most widely planted grape of Australia and is important in California and Washington. Sommelier Secret—Such a synergy these three create together, the Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre trio often takes on the shorthand term, “GSM.”

Yarra Valley Wine

Victoria, Australia

View all products

As the most important area of wine production in Victoria today, the Yarra Valley is most popular for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, which account for over half of vineyard acreage. A gentle, rolling and rural region alongside the Margaret River, the Yarra Valley has a cool maritime climate with a lengthy growing season, perfect for these cool-climate varieties.

Two styles of Pinot Noir are possible here. The warmer Lower Yarra Valley with sandy, loam soils, produces plush and fruity Pinot Noir while the cooler, higher-elevation Upper Yarra Valley with soils of young red basalt, produces more angular and mineral-driven Pinot Noir.

Yarra Valley Chardonnay is among the best in Australia. To preserve the floral aromatics and fresh citrus flavors for which this area’s Chardonnay is so appreciated, time in barrel is restrained (though barrel fermentation is common). The best Yarra Valley Chardonnays display brilliant acidity, leesy characteristics, citrus, stone fruit and flavors of ginger and spice.

Shiraz and Cabernet find success in parts of this region as well.
