Dry, tangy sauvignon blanc with green capsicum, gooseberry and tropical fruit, passionfruit and guava flavours. The wine has impressive purity and energy and a lingering finish. A typical Awatere style30 OCT 2017
Bob Campbell 92 points The Real Review
2017 Yealands Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc, Awatere Valley is a clean, bright wine. Tropical fruits are layered with clean citrus undertones. A restrained and well behaved Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Fish and chips with a good mayonnaise, will bring out it's elegant side.
Thinking differently is what Peter Yealand does. Crafting award-winning wines in harmony with nature has seen Yealands lead the world in sustainable winegrowing. But most importantly, it means great tasting wines which don’t cost the earth.
The 2017 Yealands Single Vineyard Savignon Blanc shows pure fruit flavours of passionfruit, blackcurrant leaf, fresh herbs, layered with bright citrus notes.
The palate is textured and elegant, with the distinctive mineral finish that our Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc is renowned for. Enjoy as an aperitif, or with freshly shucked oysters, prawns, green lip mussels and clams. Also matches brilliantly with a goat’s cheese salad. Drink now or cellar 2-4 years.
This wine is suitable for vegetarians, vegans and gluten free diet.
