The 2021 Syrah ‘Yellingbo’ is wonderfully perfumed, with beautiful elegant structure. So pretty, this latest release is lighter bodied than the 2019 at this early stage, however, Jayden feels it will gain some power and weight as it develops in bottle. Patience will certainly pay dividends if you can resist this youthful charmer. Stylistically he loves the 2021 Syrah. A real joy already - fine taut and so brightly moreish. L&S (Nov 2022)

From the Tibooburra vineyard, located at 240 m of elevation in the south-east of the Yarra Valley. 55% whole bunches fermented separately from the destemmed fruit. Ambient-yeast fermentation and approximately 30 days on skins. Hand-plunged. Aged in old oak. Alluringly fragrant nose of just-picked red and black bramble fruit. A lifted floral note and a gentle juniper character underneath. Certainly a fine-boned style of Syrah, but there’s real juicy depth to the flavours on the palate, and liquorice and spice on the finish. There’s an alluring low-key elegance to this wine.

Jayden Ong
Jayden Ong started making wine at his 'One Block' winery in 2010. There is another label for others which are not strictly 'one block' - 'La Maison de Ong'.
In 2015 Jayden and his wife Morgan bought a plot of land and started the Jayden Ong label for wines from their home-grown fruit. As he puts it, "Jayden Ong wines are the wines we grow (100% control on all farming, dry grown, high altitude, organic at a minimum), make & bottle and come from Chestnut Hill (300m asl) and our home vineyard Forest Garden (700m asl)". This is early days for this vineyard, but the first efforts look extremely promising.
