Tasting Notes
Aroma
Estate Gamay Noir ’25 bounces out of the
glass with candied cherries, Turkish delight, and bubble gum.
Appearance
Deep ruby with a bright purple edge.
Palate
On the palate, ripe
raspberries, cherry syrup, and powder-light tannins, carry all this juicy red fruit
onwards through the wine’s moreish palate. The fine structure with warming notes of
cinnamon and nutmeg, build out the dimensions of Estate Gamay Noir ’25 adding to
its intense Gamay quench-ability.
Vinification
The unique ‘maceration carbonique’ fermentation, which enhances the fruit and
floral aromas of the wine, was used for 68% of the grapes. The other 32% received
a traditional, warm, red wine fermentation. The resulting wines completed their
malolactic fermentation and were matured for eight weeks in seasoned French oak
barrels, before blending and bottling.
Cellaring Potential
Estate Gamay Noir ’25 can be enjoyed immediately upon release and can be served
at room temperature or, during summer, lightly chilled. It will continue to develop in
bottle for two years from harvest.
Food Matching
Estate Gamay Noir ’25 is an incredibly versatile wine, partnering with any food and is
particularly good with tapas, matching its vibrant fruit and soft tannins.
Region Notes
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 ’25 is a single vineyard wine from Te Mata Estate’s Woodthorpe
Terraces vineyard, harvested from 14 to 22 March 2025.
