Merchant's description
First launched with the 1995 vintage, Yattarna is Penfolds flagship white, selectively sourcing only the best Chardonnay fruit from cool-climate regions. The 2018 release is on a par with the exceptional 2012 and 2017 releases with fruit from Tasmania, Tumbarumba and the Adelaide Hills all experiencing fantastic weather conditions. This vintage is bursting with flavour and has a beautifully linear mouthfeel, texturally delightful!
