To
create the specialties of the Coldstream Hills winery, each year
outstanding parcels of grapes are earmarked for special attention
during making, using new French barriques. When the resulting wine
is regarded as outstanding it forms the strictly limited quantity of
wine bearing the Reserve label. While the fruit remains the driving
force, there is more focus on structure and complexity. The Reserve
wines are designed to improve for at least five years, and live for
a decade or more.

The
emphasis here is on the varietal fruit and length of flavour which
the Yarra Valley bestows on each grape variety. The Yarra Valley Wines
are designed to be enjoyed upon release - attractive when young, but
will certainly reward careful cellaring.
