Well it's a bit cheeky to give your own wines a perfect score (see the other reviews) but this is stupendous stuff. Loosely knit and full of crunchy fruit and savoury herbaceous notes, it's a splendid example of the New Zealand quality revolution. They're not giving it away at the lcbo ($52) but this would easily be $20+ more if it had a California label and exponentially more if it was from burgundy, which tasted blind you might suspect.
