What reviewers say
“An interesting nose initially when decanted. I'd call it barnyard funk. With a little blood and bone. This cleared off over time, but not completely. Medium bodied palate, concentrated and intense with black cherries, dark chocolate, cinnamon and blood pudding. Acidity on the finish provides drive for the (lengthy) encore. Loved it.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
A very bright and spicy style of Mourvèdre, this wine is quite perfumed. It has slight hints of the trademark Mourvèdre green peppercorn, and tight grippy tannins on the palate

The calibrated figure is built from 43 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 43 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead. The cohort it is ranked inside holds 517 Australian reds.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.
- Global percentile
- Where Yangarra Mourvèdre lands against every wine we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — wines of the same type from the same country. A Chilean red is judged against Chilean reds, not against Champagne. Ranked against Red · Australia (517 wines).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each wine keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 43.
