Yealands Estate Single Block S1 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Yealands Estate Single Block S1 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2021

  • Dry style
  • Ripe citrus
  • Vibrant herbs
  • Mouth-watering

"Sauvignon Blanc at its glorious, scintillating best from New Zealand’s chilly Awatere Valley. Enough passionfruit, grapefruit and lime zest, stinging intensity, aided by salty sea spray, to sweep away the cares of the world" International Wine Challenge 2022

The nose is pure and expressive showing vibrant herbal and blackcurrant leaf notes, with underlying ripe citrus notes. The S1 Sauvignon Blanc is elegant and textural, it shows great concentration and length, with a mineral finish. Enjoy now, or cellar 2-4 years.

The S1 block Sauvignon Blanc comes from a sun soaked site, moderated by cool, coastal breezes on our Seaview Vineyard. The subsequent style and flavours reflect this terroir, with a lush, full palate, balanced by mouth-watering acidity

This is the earliest harvest on record. The 2021 growing season started with some late spring frosts and 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 us up for an early start with superb fruit. With clear warm days during March, it meant we could pick at our leisure without any pressure from the elements. The S1 Sauvignon Blanc parcel was picked at perfect ripeness, allowing the wine to show the classic flavours and aromas the wine is known for.

The carefully harvested fruit from the S1 block was de-stemmed, chilled and gently pressed. The juice was cold settled for 72 hours, after which the clear juice was racked off. A long, cool fermentation with a specialist Sauvignon Blanc yeast followed to capture and enhance the distinctive fruit flavours created by the S1 block. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was racked, stabilised and filtered before bottling.

Thinking differently is what we do at Yealands. Crafting award-winning wines in harmony with nature has seen us lead the world in sustainable winegrowing. But most importantly, it means great tasting wines which don’t cost the earth. The Single Block wines are the purest expression of the land, showcasing the distinctive flavours from individual vineyard blocks.

Food Pairing: Enjoy with both fresh and cooked seafood dishes including freshly shucked oysters, prawns, green lipped mussels and creamy scallops.

Suitable for vegetarians, vegans and a gluten free diet.
