2014: Now we are in the presence of royalty so mind your P's and Qs. Te Mata 'reputedly' make the best NZ red in Coleraine and this is the little brother's er little brother. It is beetroot red showing it is as fresh as a daisy. But the taste is already exceptional for the year and the price at $22. No cab sav grassy rebellion and no merlot tart it is refined, low acid low sweetness. Like the All Blacks No. 10 we obviously have depth in numbers and age. It is a delight to drink and will surely improve. I like it — 10 years ago

Incredible. Bready, buttery brioche deliciousness with a teensy bit of age funk. 2008 vintage — 10 years ago
Cool blue and red fruit, some earthy, peppery and meaty character. Acid driven with a little funk. Pleasant surprise! — 10 years ago
