Description
Yarrabank is widely recognised as one of Australia’s flagship sparkling wines poured at the finest restaurants. A joint venture between Champagne Devaux in France and Yering Station of Yarra Valley has produced this top shelf vintage sparkling.
2017 is here…
The 2016 vintage is 56% Chardonnay and 44% Pinot Noir, 5 years on lees, always made to avoid malolactic fermentation to showcase the delicate fruit, pristine freshness and racy acidity which is the signature Yarrabank style.
Fruit from the upper Yarra was hand picked and underwent two fermentations – one in steel, one in bottle. Oak treatment included 5% of Reserve level wine matured in foudre. Aged for 5 years on lees without malolactic fermentation.
Lucious honeysuckle notes on the nose. Citrus butter and custard apple. A beautiful palate celebrating the union of Pinot richness and Chardonnay vibrancy. Hints of vanilla slice and citrus fruits are supported by an elegant oyster-shell minerality.
Review of 2016
95 points, Ned Goodwin, Halliday Wine Companion “A collaborative effort between the Yering Station winemaking team and Campagne Devaux, comprised of 56% chardonnay and 44% pinot noir and made in the traditional fashion, this was aged for 5 years on lees without mlf. The dosage is in check at 5g/l, the texture ample and creamy, with plenty of toast, iodine and baked apple notes lending credence to a salubrious bready style. Plenty of colour already, yet impressive in its weight, vitality and detail.”
