Tasting Notes
Palate
With careful vineyard management and a light handed approach in the winery,
the Blanc showcases the vibrant, textural and crunchy style these varieties
provide in unison.
Vinification
The Grenache Blanc was picked and pressed to tank. Roussanne, Bourboulenc,
Clairette and Grenache Gris were hand picked and basket pressed
independently with fine free run separated. All juice extracted to stainless
steel tank then transferred for fermentation in old French oak hogsheads
and barriques. Matured in barrel on lees for 6 months before blending.
Bottled February 2022. Certified Organic and Biodynamic.
Vintage Notes
The 2022 growing season followed very similar conditions to 2021, though
slightly cooler. There were favourable winter rains and a mild flowering and
fruit set period. The cool ripening period took place between late January
through to harvest in March. Yields were well balanced, and we’re pleased
with the fruit ripeness, intensity, freshness, and natural acidity.
Roussanne was picked mid harvest, 21st March and Piquepoul 20th March. The
Grenache Blanc was picked 3rd and 4th April and the Bourboulenc, Clairette
and Grenache Gris also picked 3rd April.
Region Notes
Yangarra is a single-vineyard estate situated in Blewitt Springs, at the northern
edge of the McLaren Vale region, South Australia. Yangarra’s combination of
ancient geology, high altitude and Mediterranean climate provide the ideal growing
conditions for the best grape varieties of the southern Rhône.
