"When Peter explained this wine to me prior to tasting it, I was skeptical. Nervous. Hesitant. "It's the essence of Yattarna, in effect," Gago said. The NV V is composed of 20% each of 2011, 2012, 2014, 2016 and the yet to be released 2021 Yattarna. It's risky behavior, this. Each of the already-bottled older vintages are emptied under gas pressure and blended—an equal share each way. It's tempting to compare it to the G3, G4, G5 project, however in each of those wines, the vintage contributions are distinct and recognizable. Here, the vintages are synergistic, melded together—easier to understand in the context of reserve wines in Champagne, or even a solera. There is pert acidity and precision on the front palate, presumably thanks to the 2021 vintage. Through the middle palate and finish, the wine plumes and grows in the mouth. It is infinitely more complex and deep than the single-vintage Yattarna tasted next to it. This V has a thundering baritone, a resonance to the reverberation of flavor in the mouth. It almost vibrates. It is only through the finish that you can taste the evolution of the oldest wines—a lick of salt, almond skin, brine and tasted crushed nuts. This is a monumental wine. A 360-degree view of Chardonnay. Truly kaleidoscopic. 2,200 bottles in total."

"A sneak peak at the new five-vintage cuvée of Yattarna Chardonnay (a partner to Grange's G5) reveals the great ambition of this elite multi-regional blend, showing the sum of all its parts at their absolute best. Combining equal proportions of the 2011, 2012, 2014, 2016 and currently unreleased 2021 vintages, there is a more assured swell of savoury secondary characteristics (roasted hazelnut, brioche and oyster shell) woven among the bright fruit notes, showing radiant lemon, white peach and a squeeze of grapefruit. In a single bottle, it shows the benefits that aged Chardonnay brings without surrendering the shimmering beauty of fresh primary fruit."
