Yealands Wines are inspired by the coast that surrounds their property in New Zealand, so close to the ocean that the vines are often misted with sea spray. The beauty of the environment influences how Yealands crafts wine, respectful of nature and the land. This bright, energetic Pinot exudes the terroir of the cool growing region and is sure to find a welcome home in any serious Pinot drinkers glass.
