#chardonnay #newzealand good balance good tension — 4 months ago
Pale pale lemon with pronounced aromas of citrus (grapefruit, tangerine) thiols. Some green fruit (Green Apple, kiwi) and herbaceous hints (green pepper). Dry, high acidity, medium alcohol, medium body and medium finish. #riesling #newzealand #marlborough — 7 months ago
Reminiscent of an old world #pinotnoir there’s a bitterness on the pallet like a black tea bag. Red fruit and potpourri on the nose. Very good. #newzealand — a year ago
I had this 2015 and I could sense it was already starting to show negative signs of age. Starting to show tertiaries and tiredness. It’s a lovely wine and I would rate it higher, but if you have 2015s or older vintages you should drink them now or RIP. That’s my feeling. #pinotnoir #martinborough #newzealand — 2 months ago
I expected more from a #singlevineyard release from #kumeu and that has been touted by the likes of #jancisrobinson must be an #mw thing. Too expensive for what it delivered. Better off with the #estate wines of Kumeu. #newzealand #pinotnoir — 6 months ago
Borderline 9.0 it is very good but not outstanding. Definitely better on the palate than on the nose. On the palate it has a lovely sweet spice finish with hints of cedar, sage and clove. #pinotnoir #newzealand — a year ago

Amazing. Such a concentrated fruit completely balanced by the acidity that is just right, not puckering not sour just balancing the fruit and then there are lovely hints of vainilla and cream in the chorus. Love it. #chardonnay #newzealand #martinborough — 2 months ago
Nice. But a little past it’s prime. Look for an earlier vintage. #pinotnoir #newzealand — a year ago

Medium plus aromas and flavors of tart citrus fruit (Mayer lemons, orange) and popcorn and vainilla. It seems overtly ripe on the nose, but the acidity balances the ripe fruit on the palate. #chardonnay #newzealand #marlborough — a month ago
