Yealands Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2025 (187ml)

Description

Dry, Grapefruit, Lime

The nose is lifted with citrus aromas of lime and grapefruit, fresh herbs, tropical fruits and blackcurrant bud. The palate shows flavours of tropical fruits, balanced by a crisp citrus acidity and a subtle minerality to help create great length. Enjoy now, or cellar up to 2 years.

Our wine is inspired by the coast that surrounds us, so close to the ocean that our vines are often misted with sea spray. The beauty of our environment influences how we craft wine, respectful of nature and our land. Yealands believes in sustainable winemaking and creating thoughtfully crafted wines that work in harmony with our landscape.

2025 was a season of generosity, both in the vineyard and in the glass. An excellent flowering set the stage for the season, followed by a classic Indian summer. Warm but not excessive heat, combined with well-timed rainfall kept canopies healthy, and supported even, steady ripening. A cooler spell in January was followed by optimal conditions through late summer and early autumn, with warm days and cool nights enhancing flavour development and acid retention. Vintage 2025 has delivered wines with both weight and finesse, showcasing vibrant aromatics, purity of flavour, and the hallmark expression we strive for at Yealands.

vineyards were used to craft this wine. At the winery, the individual parcels of fruit were gently pressed and clarified. The clear juice was then fermented separately using a range of selected yeasts. A long, cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks helps to retain the vibrant, fresh characters Sauvignon Blanc is known for. After fermentation the wine was blended, stabilised, and filtered in preparation for bottling.

Food Pairing: Grilled Halloumi with herb & lemon dressing, goats cheese tart, grilled chicken with chimichurri, pulled pork taco with pineapple salsa, or ceviche. Suitable for vegetarians, vegans and a gluten free diet.
