					<description><![CDATA[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.

Kono Pinot Noir is made to consume as a youthful wine - from two to five years from vintage.

Each range has been crafted with aroha (love) and is a gift from their land.

<em>"We are Tangata Whenua - People of the land, intrinsically connected to our whenua that we protect, nurture and love."</em>

Whenua Awa, the Upper Awatere Valley vineyard, is one of these special sites and rich in history.
This single vineyard best expresses the uniqueness of this place and the relationship within it.
Intense ripe dark fruit aromas and soft silky tannins result from this unfined and unfiltered, complex and elegantly structured  Pinot Noir.

					<description><![CDATA[Tohu Wines is the world’s first Māori-owned wine company, which created ranges of award-winning, premium quality New Zealand wines that encapsulate their terroir and tūrangawaewae, their sense of place. Each range has been crafted with aroha (love) and is a gift from our land.

This wine is grown in three very distinct vineyards located in the cool southern Awatere Valley region of Marlborough; one located on the windy, exposed coastal planes, with the other two located further inland on young fertile river terraces.
