Yellow Tail Chardonnay is a well-rounded and approachable white wine from Australia’s New South Wales region. Known for its ripe fruit character and smooth finish, this is a classic expression of modern Chardonnay, balancing creamy texture with just the right amount of freshness. At 13% ABV, it’s satisfying without being heavy, making it a perfect wine to enjoy with a wide range of meals or simply on its own.
This is one of the most recognised wines from the Yellow Tail range — a name trusted by wine drinkers around the world for its accessibility and reliable quality. It’s a favourite for those browsing wine online or searching for wine direct from producers who focus on making wine fun, flavourful, and easy to enjoy.
The Yellow Tail brand was founded in 2001 by the Casella family, Italian immigrants who established their winery in Yenda, a small town in south-eastern Australia. Their aim was simple: to make great wine that could be enjoyed by everyone. The brand’s bright labels, screw cap closures, and fruit-forward style helped it stand out from the more traditional competition, and it quickly became one of the most recognisable wine brands globally.
Yellow Tail wines are now available in over 50 countries and have won numerous awards for both quality and value, including trophies at the International Wine & Spirit Competition and the Berliner Wein Trophy. While the label is known for its casual appeal, behind the scenes is a serious commitment to sustainable viticulture, quality control, and innovation.
If you’re shopping wine Dublin or looking for wine delivery Ireland, Yellow Tail Chardonnay is a go-to for both new and experienced wine drinkers looking for consistency and approachability.
