Winemaker Notes
The 2022 Matua Winemaker’s Release Sauvignon Blanc opens with vibrant, lifted aromas of crisp lemon zest, juicy passionfruit, and subtle herbaceous hints of fresh basil and cut grass. On the palate, this classic Marlborough white is light to medium-bodied, fruit-driven, and brimming with lively acidity, featuring bright flavors of grapefruit, key lime, white peach, and a touch of green melon. Clean and beautifully balanced, it finishes with lingering tropical notes and a mouthwatering, refreshing crispness that makes it an ideal aperitif or seafood pairing.
About Winery
Founded in 1974 by visionaries Ross and Bill Spence in an unassuming Auckland tin shed, Matua Winery forever reshaped the global wine landscape by producing New Zealand’s very first Sauvignon Blanc. Named after the Māori word for "Head of the Family," the brothers took a daring gamble on a grape variety virtually unknown in the country at the time, planting experimental vines that would eventually lead them to Marlborough's world-famous valleys. What started as a humble passion project ignited a worldwide revolution for crisp, vibrant Kiwi wines, cementing Matua's legacy as an intrepid trailblazer that put New Zealand on the international winemaking map.
