Matua Valley Hawke's Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Hawkes Bay, North Island, New ZealandWe typically think of Matua and Marlborough, but this bottling of sauvignon blanc comes from Hawke's Bay. It was inoculated and fermented cool in stainless over several weeks on lees before bottling. Tangerine, white blossoms, and guava lead, before a gentle, lees decked palate leads to a snappy grapefruit twist on the brief finish. Simple and straightforward.Tasted: 23 February 2026Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
