2021 Yangarra 'Roussanne', McLaren Vale, South Australia

Yangarra adheres to a philosophy centered around crafting wines that authentically capture the essence of their single-vineyard estate. The property spans 170 hectares, with nearly 90 hectares dedicated to vineyards while the remaining 80 hectares are preserved for native flora and fauna, fostering a harmonious relationship between the vines and their natural surroundings. Situated amidst rare geologies, moderate altitude, ample sunshine, and refreshing evening breezes, We worked with this wine on food pairings, and its versatility is incredible. Because the wine has a medium bodied, fairly good acidity, with notes of stone fruit and floral notes of yellow roses it matches a wide range of foods. From chicken dishes to barramundi to cheese platers, you choose! Serve at about 13 degrees in large glasses, and may even benefit from decanting. You can definitely drink it now or withing 3 years of age.  Why do we like it? The winery provides an ideal setting for cultivating grape varieties suited to Mediterranean climates. Embracing the best grapes of the southern Rhone. Through a commitment to biodynamic regenerative farming and meticulous winemaking practices, they honour the unique character of the land, ensuring that each bottle of Yangarra Estate wine resonates with the spirit of this extraordinary terroir.
