The 2024 Te Mata Estate Vineyards Pinot Noir is crafted from carefully selected vineyard parcels grown in the cooler inland sites of Hawke’s Bay, where free-draining soils and moderate temperatures allow slow, even ripening. Te Mata has long been recognised for producing wines of balance and regional expression, and this release continues that tradition with precision and restraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 vintage delivered excellent fruit concentration while retaining freshness and aromatic clarity, resulting in a Pinot Noir of finesse rather than weight. In the glass, the wine reveals vibrant red cherry and wild strawberry fruit layered with subtle spice, dried herbs and earthy undertones. Gentle handling in the winery and thoughtful oak maturation preserve the purity of fruit while adding texture and nuance. Fine tannins and bright acidity provide structure without overshadowing the wine’s graceful profile. There is a natural elegance to the palate, driven by energy and site expression rather than overt richness. This is a poised and versatile Pinot Noir that captures the understated charm of Hawke’s Bay, offering immediate drinkability while retaining the balance to evolve attractively over the coming years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Fragrant and expressive\u003cbr\u003eAromas of red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry, layered with dried rose petals, subtle baking spice, forest floor and hints of thyme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Silky and finely structured\u003cbr\u003eBright red berry fruit flows across the palate with supple tannins, fresh acidity and gentle savoury notes of spice, dried herbs and earthy complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Elegant and persistent\u003cbr\u003eA refined finish marked by lingering red fruits, delicate spice and a subtle earthy minerality that carries with freshness and poise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStyle – Red Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal – Pinot Noir\u003cbr\u003eCountry – New Zealand\u003cbr\u003eRegion – Hawke’s Bay\u003cbr\u003eVintage – 2024\u003cbr\u003eBottle Size – 750ml\u003cbr\u003eABV – 13.5%\u003cbr\u003eOther – Vegan Friendly\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Te Mata","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43807554502743,"sku":"TME-PN","price":46.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/Te_Mata_Estate_Vineyards_Pinot_Noir_2024_750ml.webp?v=1780641934","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/te-mata-estate-vineyards-pinot-noir-2024","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
