Sourced from David Materne’s single vineyard in Greenock, they take only the pristine free-run juice, ferment it wild, and age it in a mix of new and seasoned French oak puncheons. Frequent lees stirring over eight months coaxes out magnificent depth without compromising the wine's intrinsic freshness.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 vintage hits the glass with serious shape and swagger. High aromatics of white peach, honeysuckle, and lemon balm lead into a palate that feels like a warm textural hug. There is a brilliant interplay between rich, creamy brioche momentum and a tight, clean line of acidity.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt finishes dry and long, trailing almond skin bitterness, hazelnut nougat, and a flicker of flinty minerality. It is drinking beautifully right now, but this has the structural poise to evolve into an even more savoury beast with three to five years in the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A beautiful drink as ever, the Roussanne that comes from Yelland \u0026amp; Papps is always impressive. This 2024 walks with that Clooney charm but has the shape and swagger of Hemsworth... A wine that holds itself with poise and charm, the creamy and brioche texture builds some fabulous momentum.
