VINEYARDS:
In 1995, Te Mata Estate introduced to New Zealand a superior selection of Gamay Noir à Jus Blanc, the grape variety of the best wines of France's Beaujolais region. Estate Gamay Noir '21 is a single vineyard wine from Te Mata Estate's Woodthorpe Terraces vineyard, harvested on 2 and 3 March 2021.
WINEMAKING:
The unique ‘maceration carbonique' fermentation, which enhances the fruit and floral aromas of the wine, was used for 65% of the grapes. The other 35% received a traditional, warm, red wine fermentation. The resulting wines completed their malolactic fermentation and were matured for nine weeks in seasoned French oak barrels, before blending and bottling.
TASTING NOTE:
Candy-apple red and edged in royal purple, Estate Gamay Noir '21 is bursting with raspberry, Turkish delight, blueberry, wild strawberry, and ripe, black cherry. Its superfloral, red-fruit presence is balanced by subtle notes of smoke, liquorice, sandalwood, and cinnamon. A gorgeous line of bright acidity runs the length of the wine, giving incredible freshness and persistence. A supreme example, Estate Gamay Noir '21 captivates and refreshes at the same time. Silky, stylish, and simply stunning.
FOOD MATCH:
Estate Gamay Noir '21 is an incredibly versatile wine, partnering with any food and is particularly good with tapas, matching its vibrant fruit and soft tannins.
