TE MATA ESTATE AWATEA RED BLEND NEW ZEALAND 2018 Whiskey It's lavish

It's lavish

The team tastes the whiskey finishing in the Port Wine Casks regularly until the optimal flavors are achieved

Aged for at least six months in very old George Dickel Tennessee whiskey barrels

Just like the Red Schooner Malbec from Argentina is known by the "voyage" that produced it

TE MATA ESTATE AWATEA RED BLEND NEW ZEALAND 2018 Whiskey It's lavishAnother great showing yet again from the Te Mata stable! The '19' shows attractive aromatics of dark cherry, blackberries, cola and cassis, bay leaf, lavender, and olive tapenade. The palate shows a wonderful elegance with ripe acidity, focus and finesse with ripe tannin and a long, layered finish. Brilliant.
