✨ Technical Specifications
Yellow Tail Moscato is a vibrant, easy-drinking expression of the ancient Muscat grape, crafted in the accessible style that made this Australian brand a global phenomenon. Sourced from sun-drenched vineyards across South Eastern Australia, the grapes are harvested cool and fermented at low temperatures to preserve the intense floral aromas of orange blossom, jasmine, and fresh crushed grapes. To maintain its natural sweetness and delicate, lively spritz, the fermentation is stopped early, leaving a low-alcohol, delightfully sweet profile. This style pays homage to the Italian heritage of the Casella family, echoing the light, effervescent Moscato d'Asti of Piedmont but reimagined with the bold, fruit-forward sunshine of the Australian terroir.
🍾 About the Producer
Created in 2001 by the Casella family under Casella Family Brands, Yellow Tail is based in Yenda, New South Wales, sourcing fruit across the South Eastern Australia wine zone. Conceived by John Casella with the vision of crafting accessible, easy-drinking, and unpretentious wines, the label swiftly achieved global acclaim for its vibrant character and iconic yellow-footed rock-wallaby emblem. The winemaking philosophy centers on delivering fruit-forward, approachable profiles made with modern vinification techniques and consistent quality across red, white, and rosé styles. The brand is particularly famous worldwide for its generous Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, crisp Pinot Grigio, and sweet, effervescent Pink Moscato.
