When it comes to summer drinking, few wines deliver quite like a Sauvignon Blanc. And if you want to understand what makes the style so compelling, Yealands is a very good place to start.
Founded on the Seaview vineyard at the northern tip of the Awatere Valley in New Zealand, Yealands has worked with the particularities of its coastal Marlborough home from day one. The site is exposed, windswept, and sits close to the sea, creating a distinct style of Sauvignon Blanc perfect for hot summer afternoons.
Crisp, refreshing, and packed with flavour, Yealands Sauvignon Blancs are the kind of wines that work whether you are hosting a garden lunch, heading to the beach, or simply unwinding. Fresh citrus, cut grass, and a lifted herbal character make them immediately appealing, while their great structure gives long-lasting satisfaction.
Yealands Seaview Vineyard
By working with the natural environment, Yealands has produced delicious, flavourful wines. The coastal influence of the Seaview vineyard comes through clearly here, with a subtle saltiness sitting alongside fresh, herbal aromatics. It’s a deliciously unique style, and a reminder that where a wine comes from genuinely shapes what you experience – it’s not just Sauvignon Blanc, but a taste of Marlborough’s untamed coast.
If you want to taste the range in person, there is a good reason to make a date with the Foodies Festival, taking place across the UK this summer. Wine experts Tom Surgey and Joe Wadsack are presenting Yealands wines throughout the festival season, and if you appreciate great food alongside great wine, it is well worth putting in your diary.
Yealands Sauvignon Blanc and Yealands Reserve Sauvignon Blanc are available now in great wine retailers. Find out more at Yealands.co.nz and follow along at @Yealands on Instagram.
