2025 Yinku Adelaide Hills Fiano

Our Yinku Adelaide Hills Fiano is named for the yinku (little buttonquail) birds that frequent our Adelaide Hills vineyard. 

"From Coriole’s vineyard in Kuitpo at 400m. Old-oak fermentation and maturation. A new wine to the extensive lineup, and a very different fiano to the McLaren Vale iterations. Aromatically lifted, this is prettily adorned with white floral scents, peach blossom, jasmine, mint and stone fruit, with nashi and cold-poached apple more apparent on the palate. Such a charmingly fragrant and respectfully exotic wine, with a mineral undercurrent of wet stones and flint. It’s textural, acidity is vivid, there’s pithiness, and the flavour has nagging length. What a stunning new entrant to the swelling ranks of fiano. 95 points"
Marcus Ellis, Wine Companion

"Pithy lemons, waxy lemon skins, golden apples, some white peach, chamomile, dandelion, and jasmine on the nose. Medium-bodied, superbly textural, fresh and borderline exotic on the palate. Lemons, golden apples, dried honey, and chamomile tea with an intriguing undercurrent of minerally nuance and complexity. Very subtly spicy. Wonderful length on the finish. Excellent stuff. Highly recommended. 94+ points"
