Yangarra Roussanne 2012
McLaren Vale, South Australia, AustraliaYangarra is a biodynamic McLaren Vale producer focusing on single-vineyard Rhone variety wines. Roussanne, rarely seen in Oz, shines on these soils of sand and ironstone gravels. Wild yeasts and a lack of sulphur and fining have created a savoury, textured, waxy white, herbal and wild meadow flower aromas, fresh with grapefruit and lychee acidity, and plumped with honeysuckle, nutty lees, florals and musk melon. The finish is spicy and lemon peel lingering. Pour with roast poultry or sablefish, or hold for three to five years.Tasted: 09 March 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $30.00 | 750ml |
