Ok – so it isn’t made with oragens, but when you catch that first whiff, this wine leaps out of the glass with a delicious zing and aroma of orange blossom.
Made with Muscat, Grenache Blanc and Viognier, the skin contact is relatively short with full skin contact for just 5 days. Whilst the colour has a lovely oragne hue, it isn’t bright orange – “Ceci n’est pas une Orange” as Magritte would say…
Thinking differently is what they 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 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 flavours of ripe nectarine and a lush, full palate balanced by mouth-watering mineral acidity.
At Yealands, the aim is to leave the land better than we found it. This is achieved through a wide range of initiatives and on-going projects including developing wetlands, making their own special compost and using natural pest control measures in the vineyards.
