From Vale and Vine

New Zealand's expansive coastline and diverse climate provide ideal growing conditions countrywide for an impressive variety of wines. For the better part of half-a-century, Kiwi vintners have gone to exhaustive lengths, narrowing down which varietals grow best in each region. Their patience, persistence, and tireless labor have borne exceptional fruit – literally and figuratively – especially in the Marlborough Region, which has produced outstanding Chardonnay and achieved a level of excellence in Sauvignon Blanc that sets the New World standard. Of course, if red is your color, the Otago Region on the South Island bottles exemplary Pinot Noirs that rival any vintner's label.

Pacific Yacht Provisions takes tremendous pride in the exceptional quality of New Zealand's wine, and we proudly endorse them without reservation. That being said, we understand that… well, it's wine, and what we pour is often a reflection of who we are. Plus, let's be honest, who can argue against a bottle of Stags' Leap Chardonnay with mushroom risotto or a Right Bank Bordeaux alongside a Wagyu ribeye? With this in mind, Pacific Yacht Provisions imports from sellers around the globe to keep your cellars – and galleys – stocked with the most prestigious and time-honored labels on earth. Ask our culinary experts to recommend the perfect pairing with any dish.
