Little Beauty

Yealands’ Babydoll wines have introduced slimline cans that are as delicious on the eyes as they are on your tastebuds

We’ve been tracking the rising trend for wines in cans since earlier this year, and now it’s about to explode this spring across New Zealand. Prize for the prettiest and cutest new cans definitely goes to Yealand’s Babydoll range, which offers premium wines in 250ml slimline cans.

Lightweight, portable, smashproof and perfect for the outdoors, these wines have obvious appeal for us outgoing Kiwis, as does Babydoll’s great environmental creds. Named after the cute little babydoll sheep that act as tiny lawnmowers that keep things tidy between the vines at Yealands’ vineyards, the range is made with low impact, sustainable winemaking methods and is Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand and CarboNZero certified.

Sparkling Blush Marlborough

This pretty pink sparkling wine is refreshingly crisp with classic pinot gris flavours of peach, light florals and ripe red berry flavours from a dash of merlot. Pairs perfectly with sushi and sashimi.
