Te Mata Estate Sauvignon Blanc ’22 is brilliant white gold, and packed with the aromas of tropical fruit, from guava to pineapple, ripe grapefruit, Key lime and passionfruit. Concentrated and long, the palate shows more weight with nectarine, white peach and a fine sea-salt edge that only adds to the wine’s ripe, thirst-quenching character. Quintessentially Hawke’s Bay, Te Mata Estate Sauvignon Blanc ’22 delivers new dimensions of freshness and appeal.
Te Mata Estate has five vineyards totaling 15 hectares on the free draining soils of the Havelock Hills north-facing slopes. Te Mata Estate’s wines are from some of the oldest vineyards in New Zealand. In 1996 the Havelock Hills area was recognized for the significance of its natural and viticultural heritage when it was designated the Te Mata Special Character Zone. First planted in the 1890s, this area produces wines with balance, power and elegance.
