Yealands Estate
Yealands Estate Review
Peter Yealand has a vision as big as his vineyards, and neither are small. Sustainability is a key focus and he has measured and offset all greenhouse gas emissions from day one. With over 2,500 acres of vines planted and a new-build state-of-the-art winery, it's an impressive vision. Sauvignon blanc is the star wine but the winery also does great things with the pinot gris, riesling, viognier, and pinot noir grapes. Yealands has free tastings of all their wines, including their Estate range, and there are audiovisual displays and interactive monitors to enhance your experience.
