Yattarna Chardonnay 2018

This wine has won the world's best white wine in 2021!!!

I love it when a wine shocks me, and while ‘18 Yattarna hasn’t the absolute tension or grandeur of the near-perfect 2017, this is a devastatingly alluring wine and it is already performing at a heightened pheromonal level. There is dreamy musk scattered liberally among the lusty fruit notes and at this stage of its life, it is already loving life at the same time as making Bin A look a little occluded. No doubt it will firm up and the gravitas gene will emerge, but for now, this is a hippy chick Yattarna, so grab it for a one-off whirl and then put it back in the cellar to gather its thoughts. There is a lovely cool edge to this wine which will keep it on the straight and not-so-narrow and I imagine that its best years will be at least six years down the track so please be patient.’ 19+/20 - Matthew Jukes.
