Concentrated flavours of snowpea, flowering herbs, green papaya and blackcurrant, with underlying ripe green citrus notes. The palate is textured and elegant, with the distinctive mineral finish that their Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc is renowned for.
Their Seaview Vineyard in the Awatere Valley is exposed to some of the toughest growing conditions in Marlborough; high sunshine and wind, cool nights and low rainfall which produces a smaller, thicker skinned berry with intense fruit flavours. This wine is a blend of four different blocks located in the coastal eastern area of the Seaview Vineyard. The wine radiates the coastal influence blocks; with expressive aromatics and mineral backbone and length.
This is the earliest harvest on record since their inception. There were late spring frosts in Marlborough and some challenging weather over the flowering period, which resulted in moderate crops throughout the region. These moderate crops, coupled with a warm and stable end to the growing season, set them up for an early start with stunning fruit. They had clear warm days throughout March, so they could pick at their leisure, without any pressure from the elements. The Sauvignon Blanc from this vintage is showing the wonderful typicity that their Seaview Vineyard is known for – highly aromatic flavours with a vibrant palate that highlights purity of site with an elegant, mineral finish.
OTheir Seaview Vineyard in the Awatere Valley is one of New Zealand’s most coastal vineyards. Breathtaking vistas of rolling hills and wild coastline define their wines. The strong offshore winds encourage the grapes to grow small with thickened skins and wonderfully concentrated characteristics. Yealands Estate Single Vineyard wines are the truest expression of their coastal location, showcasing their unique environment and diversity of flavours across this singularly incredible vineyard.
Food Pairing: Enjoy as an aperitif, or with freshly shucked oysters, steamed green lip mussels or goat cheese salad.
