PenfoldsYattarna Chardonnay 2017
Dry, Medium Bodied style of Chardonnay
Adelaide Hills, Australia
About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of ChardonnayAdelaide Hills, AustraliaLaunched in 1998 with the 1995 vintage, Yattarna is the result of one of the most comprehensive, focused and highly publicised wine development projects ever conducted in Australia. On the nose, a citrus edge leans towards lime-lime leaf in tandem with Granny Smith apple and honeydew granita. Background complexing aromas of creamy Greek yoghurt-tzatziki and lanolin, no doubt arising from courting yeast lees for eight months in French barriques. On the palate, this wine is elegant, yet profoundly powerful at the same time. Lime and a hint of jackfruit sits well with the creamy texture. Peak drinking 2022 - 2037.
