Tasting notes: Te Merio Sauvignon Blanc
Te Merio Sauvignon Blanc. Bright, crisp and aromatic, with generous aromas of cut grass, tomato-leaf and asparagus over a tangy palate of citrus, bell-pepper and bay.
Food Match:
A great all-rounder with fresh fish, cold cuts and salads.
Producer/Region:
Boutinot’s New Zealand wines are sourced from vineyards in each sub-regions of Marlborough – the Awatere, Waihopai and Wairau Valleys, as well as the breezier region of Waipara. These valleys have their own micro-climates and terroir which give a unique personality to the vineyards, grapes and finished wines.
Winemaker Samantha Bailey brings her blending expertise and experienced palate to the fore in expressing the loveliest Boutinot wines from The Land of the Long White Cloud.
With more texture than aromatics alone, this is a food-friendly Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand. New Zealand is an island country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. It consists of two main landmasses—the North Island and the South Island —and over 700 smaller islands.
Sauvignon Blanc is a green-skinned grape variety that originates from the city of Bordeaux in France. The grape most likely gets its name from the French words sauvage and blanc due to its early origins as an indigenous grape in South West France. It is possibly a descendant of Savagnin.
