Producentens noter (engelsk): 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 ’26 is a single vineyard wine from Te Mata Estate’s Woodthorpe Terraces vineyard, harvested from 12 to 20 March 2026. The unique ‘maceration carbonique’ fermentation, which enhances the fruit and floral aromas of the wine, was used for 85% of the grapes. The other 15% received a traditional, warm, red wine fermentation. The resulting wines completed their malolactic fermentation and were matured for seven weeks in seasoned French oak barrels, before blending, fining and bottling
