(at New Malden, Surrey, 24 Nov 2021)
Drinking Window: 2021 - 2022
This was the earliest harvest on record for Yealands. The grapes come from the coastal sub-region of Awatere Valley, here producing a wine with impressive concentration and fruit purity. Richly aromatic, with notes of blackcurrant leaf, passion fruit and citrus, smoky and with a good weight.
