TASTING NOTES FOR The Yard Channybearup Sauvignon Blanc Pemberton Western Australia 2022
🍷 Appearance
Pale straw with a light green hue. Bright and youthful, reflecting its cool-climate origin.
👃 Aromas
Lifted and expressive, showing sliced green apple, green mango and crisp pear.
Underlying notes of snow pea, fresh herbs and subtle mineral tones add complexity.
👅 Palate
Medium to full-bodied for Sauvignon Blanc, delivering ripe citrus, pear and kiwifruit flavours.
There’s a gentle savoury edge—think currant leaf and green pea—balanced by soft, integrated acidity.
🍈 Texture & Finish
Softly textured with a lightly worked oak influence adding roundness and depth.
The finish is long and layered, building with citrus, herbaceous notes and a clean, mineral edge.
🍇 Overall Style
A more complex, textural Sauvignon Blanc style—less overtly grassy, more layered and food-friendly.
Combines ripe fruit, savoury nuance and subtle oak for added richness.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with grilled fish, seafood, fish & chips, or herb-driven dishes. Also works beautifully with goat’s cheese and fresh salads.
🥂 BBD Verdict
A standout Sauvignon Blanc that offers more depth and sophistication than the norm.
Ideal for mixed dozens where you want a premium, food-friendly white that delivers both freshness and texture.
