Ready, but will keep,
Opaque purple in colour and a richly fruited nose jumps from the glass. Hints of pepper and spice. Rich medium palate, lovely coating mouthfeel, fruit profile is Morello cherry and red fruit – tannins seamlessly integrated. The wine is rich and yet has a lovely fluidity on the back palate, 2018 – 2020.

Ready, but will keep,
Another superb Bordeaux blend from Te Mata estate. The nose bursts with blackberry, cassis and Damson fruit with a lovely garrigue, thyme note in the background. The medium bodied palate is superbly balanced with great acidity, blackcurrant fruit, rich textured and yet lifted. A great Coleraine and will deserve at least another 5 years cellaring.

Cloudy Bay,
Drink now,
Attractive pale ruby in colour, the nose of this 2015 Pinot Noir is laced with cherry, floral notes, with a lifted perfume of black raspberry leaf and an earthy spiciness. The palate is elegantly balanced with fine tannins. This is all about purity and elegance. Medium in body with refreshing acidity, this builds to a moreish finish. The 2015 is a very fine effort, elegant, similar to a red Sancerre with a little bit more spice and va-va-voom. It will offer enjoyment from 2017 to 2021.
