“Yealands really is an example of a great vineyard, a really committed company and a talented winemaker making wines that just please everyone who opens a bottle of them. Good stuff!” Oz Clarke
Watch and have Oz and Tom transport you to the north-eastern tip of New Zealand’s South Island, home to Yealands dramatic coastal vineyards. They explain the influence the sea has on the wines of Natalie ‘Nat’ Christensen (a classically trained double bassist who has been known to play music to her wine barrels). Hear how a flock sheep help keep the vineyard energy efficient and why Yealands is one of the most forward thinking and sustainable wineries in the world.
