Hubert de Castella's passion for the Yarra Valley saw him establish St Huberts in 1862. By the late 1800s it had grown to be the largest estate in the area. The wines enjoyed immediate and on-going success at wine shows both domestically and abroad. The palate is full and fleshy, with vibrant pear and citrus flavours. Although quite generous, the wine maintains good acid drive, and displays a lingering citrus and nougat finish. The Upper Yarra component adds citrus and line to the wine.
