Te Mata Estate Vineyards Syrah 2023 6pack 13.5% 750ml

ESTATE SYRAH ’23
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.

VINEYARDS
Estate Syrah ’23 was harvested between 27 March and 6 April 2023 from Te Mata
Estate’s own vineyards in Hawke’s Bay’s Dartmoor, Bridge Pā Triangle and Gimblett
Gravels sub-regions.

WINEMAKING
The individual parcels of syrah from each plot were destemmed for fermentation and
remained on skins for extended maceration before pressing. It was then run off to a
mixture of new and seasoned French oak barrels for 12 months’ maturation, during
which time it was regularly topped and racked. The wine received a traditional egg
white fining before bottling.

TASTING NOTE
Dressed in bright red with a regal purple edge, Estate Syrah 2023 exudes aromas of
red plum and dark cherry cola accentuated by hints of smoke, pepper, and nutmeg.
The palate unfurls with ripe boysenberry and raspberry fruit, nuanced by undertones
of chocolate, and toasted vanilla oak. A sumptuous wine in harmonious balance Estate
Syrah 2023 culminates in a long and lingering, savoury finish.

FOOD MATCH
Estate Syrah is a wonderful accompaniment to all red meats, savoury and lightly spiced
dishes of Mediterranean cuisine, as well as soft cheeses.

CELLARING POTENTIAL
Estate Syrah ’23 will continue to evolve in bottle for four years from harvest.
