96 Points - Philip Rich
Since the early 2000's, Medhurst Estate has been crafting some of the Yarra Valley's finest wines. With the sole objective of making the best wine possible, careful vineyard management ensures yields are low, averaging two tonnes per acre and providing intensely flavoured fruit.
The 2025 Medhurst Estate Rosé is another top class Yarra Valley example from Medhurst. Opening with wild strawberries, grapefruit and blossom of jasmine nose, with notes of bay leaf in the background. The palate is fine and textured, again cassis and hints of passionfruit. The long chalky delicate line of the wine is trademark of this single vineyard Rose.
"96 Points. A blend of cabernet sauvignon/shiraz. This was a deserved trophy winner at this year's Yarra Valley Wine Show (and for the third time since 2020, if you don't mind!). A bright, pale salmon. A complex amalgam of summer berries, pink grapefruit, white flowers and provencal herbs. Just as good on the medium-bodied, chalk inflected and beautifully balanced palate. A really good wine. 12.7% alc. Drink 2025-2028"- Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion.
