Penfolds Yattarna Chardonnay 2022

Penfolds Wines

ames Suckling 97/100 "There is a cooler aura to this, perhaps, than the other chardonnays. Spruce, nettle and lemon curd to camembert on the nose, shifting gears to stone fruit references and a glimpse of praline, cashew, pistachio and nougat at the core. A mid-weighted wine that wields an orb of reductive tension across a compact, immensely concentrated mid-palate, paradoxically giving an impression of calmness and levity. An excellent Yattarna." James Suckling

"There’s a seductive opulence to this big-bodied wine that sells the best assets of Chardonnay with aplomb. Sourced from the coolest regions of Tumbarumba in New South Wales, Tasmania and the Adelaide Hills, this premium cuvée is once again the product of clever fruit parcel selection, its bright, expressive aromas of nectarine blossom and jasmine are complemented by a sexy lick of lemon curd and a tight squeeze of grapefruit. There is magnificent balance to all the components, as complex textures and flavours unfurl, from brilliant white peach threaded with lime custard to a tingle of lemon sherbet at the end."
