te Pā Reserve Collection Seaside Sauvignon Blanc is a generous and fruity white wine displaying a nose of tropical flavours as well as the herbal flavours we know and love from New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. This wine belongs to the te Pā Reserve collection, showcasing some of the estate’s finest wines. One other notable example is the Hillside Sauvignon Blanc, a counterpart of Seaside – so called due to the locations of their vineyards. Despite being vinified in exactly the same way as its Hillside counterpart, Seaside is strikingly different. These wines are a brilliant illustration of the importance of terroir to New Zealand winemaking.

Pale amber in appearance, quite obviously an orange wine. Intriguing and complex aromas of Seville orange and rose petal with savoury, slightly nutty notes.

Straw yellow, it gives the nose intense sensations of green apple and white peach, which anticipate the notes of jasmine and aromatic herbs. In the mouth the freshness is enhanced by the marked sapidity and it is fruity up to the typically almond finish.
