The Yealands reserve collection showcases the premium fruit from Yealand’s ‘Seaview’ site in the Awatere Valley.
It offers a more pronounced passionfruit and citrus flavour profile compared to the standard Yealands Sauvignon Blanc.
I found this to be a great wine, one that I plan to purchase again, though my preference still leans towards the less intense standard Yealands Sauvignon Blanc.
While some reviews on Waitrose mention a sharp, mineral taste with an acidic aftertaste, I didn’t experience this myself. Maybe a bad batch? This wine is bottled in New Zealand, unlike the standard Yealands Sauvignon Blanc that is bulk bottled.
This vegan wine is available for purchase at both Sainsbury’s and Waitrose, priced between £9 and £11.
