Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: medium-bodied, high acidity, dry
Te Mata's Bullnose Sauvignon Blanc is a Hawke's Bay take on the variety, typically riper and rounder than Marlborough styles, with citrus and stone fruit layered over classic gooseberry and herbal notes. Crisp acidity keeps it fresh and food-friendly, with a touch more texture and weight than many New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs. A versatile, dry white best enjoyed young.
