2022 Yangarra Roux Beaute Roussanne
#30 in James Suckling Top 100 Wines of Australia 2024
97 points - James Suckling
Among the New World’s greatest whites. It weaves together sandy soils, a Mediterranean climate and a variety that has a salty savoriness. There’s a phenolic thread and a gentle touch of acidity. Complex texture from extended skin maceration in large ceramic eggs. Herbal tea, salted quince, lemon rind and pumice-like details. The ‘22 is the finest iteration yet. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now but best after 2028.
