99 Points ‘Tremendous persistence and wonderful structure…a great wine.”, Huon Hooke, The Real Review.

Te Mata Tasting Note

Coleraine ’22 harnesses the energy and complexity of Te Mata cabernet sauvignon, on show at its highest level since the first Coleraine in 1982.

The beautiful floral aromas of lavender, violet, plum, and blackcurrant, are all in orbit around the wine’s dark savoury core of tightly wound graphite, nori, coffee grounds, vanilla, and tobacco.  The palate is intensely concentrated, with a superbright tension building freshness and precision as layer upon layer of finely polished tannins give
pinpoint detail alongside signature, exacting, and levels of finesse.

Coleraine ‘22 is a modern reprise of what makes Coleraine iconic, a wine balancing past and future, heritage and innovation. This is a statement wine, one that lingers both on the palate and in the mind.
