Product Details

Yattarna is the result of shared ambition across generations of Penfolds winemakers to create a white wine that would set the standard for ultra-fine Australian chardonnay.

Stylish and classy a lovely purity of expression with native fruits and hints of lemon zest, finger lime and crushed nasturtium leaf. Upon a swirl, subtle notes of crushed honeycomb and camomile arise. Refined and classic. An initial detection of peach and nectarine from the white stone fruit spectrum but the real feature of the palate is its poise and perfectly pitched (grippy) acidity. The palate seems to just effortlessly glide linearly, retaining intent and purpose, yet structurally possessive of a velvet sheen that charms and disarms. Supported by ultra-fine cedary French oak. All tasted is both succulent and lingering, from the first sip to long after the last!

Huon Hooke
4/10/2018Light to medium straw-yellow colour, with a pronounced nutty, slightly toasted nut bouquet, showing more oak than the Reserve Bin 17. The palate is rich and concentrated, velvet-smooth and fleshy with great depth and extract. Tremendously long carry. A brilliantly balanced, powerful wine, which is just starting out on its career and will undoubtedly reward cellaring and show much more character and complexity in a few years. Great potential.

*Wine Rank: #30 of 546 - 2016 Chardonnay from Australia
