Description

An elegant light straw appearance with an intense, vibrant sub-tropical fruit bouquet with capsicum, snow pea and passionfruit aromas. The palate is fresh, vibrant and juice with sub-tropical flavours, a lovely length and a lively, soft finish.
Te Tera Sauvignon Blanc comes from our younger vineyards (vine age ranges from 9-24 years old) within the Martinborough appellation. These vineyards are cooler and sit on a mix of alluvial and clay soils. Our younger vineyards tend to produce Sauvignon Blanc that is lively and intense, with beautiful aromatics and a clean fresh palate.
Wet, overcast weather pervaded much of the growing season. While we didn’t receive the worst of the weather like other areas of New Zealand, we were still peppered with rain throughout the season. Lots of hard work in the vineyard tending to excessive grass and canopy growth was needed to see us through a challenging season. Overall the wines are looking balanced and elegant.Our Sauvingon Blanc is full of vibrancy and drive.
The grapes were harvested during the cool nights and mornings of Autumn to maintain vibrancy and freshness. After gentle pressing the wine was cool fermented with selective yeasts to release the aromas of the grapes. This wine receives no oak treatment as we believe the purity of this fruit is best expressed by fermentation and aging in the absence of oak thus maximising flavour and intensity of this Sauvignon Blanc.
