Description
Estate Sauvignon Blanc ’21 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, Estate Sauvignon Blanc ’21 delivers new dimensions of freshness and appeal.

Vineyard
Sourced exclusively from Te Mata Estate’s own vineyards, the estate wines represent the best qualities of their variety, vintage, and Hawke’s Bay origin.
Vinification
With sauvignon blanc grapes of such quality, minimal winemaking means the finer aromatics and flavours are preserved. At the winery, the grapes were chilled, gently pressed, and the juice cold-settled before fermentation in stainless steel tanks.
Maturation
Estate Sauvignon Blanc ’22 can be enjoyed immediately upon release and will continue to develop in bottle for two years from harvest.
