    The blend is composed of Dolcetto, Cinsault and Ruby Cabernet. A dry cleaners delight! The crown seal once released creates a vinous eruption that could possibly register 6.5 on the Richter scale. A third of the bottle was lost on the desk, clothes and subsequently, the carpet. Hardly a desirable start! Once settled down, the wine shows good bead with good persistence. Black, brick red base wine. The nose is quite dull, with hints of new leather, nuances of vegemite and raisins. The palate displays flavours of plum, raisin and vegemite – an unpleasant combination.

Today the soil delivers gold of another kind.At Yellowglen, the philosophy has always been to produce premium quality. Every aspect of the wine making, from the planting of the vines to the presentation, is designed to deliver premium quality. The wine is made in accordance with traditional sparkling wine production techniques. Approximately 30% of reserve wines along with parcels of malo lactic fermented base wine is included in the assemblage to add complexity.The Yellowglen Pinot Chardonnay is a blend of two vintages. The colour is subtle straw and the wine displays a lively mousse, fresh aroma of cashew nut like Chardonnay fruit and bread like aroma developed by yeast age. The palate has a lovely richness that comes from the Pinot Noir. The flavour is long and persistent with a creamy texture and crisp dry finish. 11.3% alcohol volume.
