Yealands Estate Single Vineyard Marlborough Albariño 2023
The nose is bright and lifted with fresh apricot, orange blossom and lime aromas. The palate is lively with bright acidity and lingering minerality. Drink now or cellar 2-4 years.
Our Seaview Vineyard in the Awatere Valley is one of New Zealand’s most coastal vineyards. Breath-taking vistas of rolling hills and wild coastline define our 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 our coastal location, showcasing our unique environment and diversity of flavours across this singularly incredible vineyard.
Our 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. The Albariño vines were planted in 2019 atop the Seaview cliffs on a north facing slope. The soil is predominantly windblown loess, bringing mineral characteristics to this wine.
Marlborough experienced rather high rainfall during the growing season, resulting in high moisture levels throughout the vineyard. Dewy mornings combined with good crops created a sense of nervousness heading into vintage. However, the weather remained stable, which meant we could pick our fruit when desired and the concentration and health of the fruit was outstanding. The resulting Albariño is showing highly concentrated flavours, with underlying purity and minerality.
The Albarino from our Seaview Vineyard was harvested and field destemmed, once at the winery, it remainded in the press for 18 hours, before being gently pressed. The juice was then left to settle for 72 hours, before the clear juice was racked and fermented utlising yeast, designed to heightenthe varietal characters. Fermentation took place in both stainless steel and old oak barrels, to help enhance mouthfeel, as well as capturing the delicate Albarino characters. Once fermentation was complete, the wine remained on lees, with regular stirring for 4 months. The wine was then blended, stabilised and filtered prior to bottling.
Food Pairing: Grilled fish with fresh tomato salad or fish and chips. Suitable for vegetarians, vegans and a gluten free diet.
