Awarded 91/100 Points & 4.5 Stars: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2020

"Delightfully fruited and inviting, the bouquet shows ripe peach, rockmelon, vanilla and roasted cashew characters, leading to a beautifully weighted palate that’s rounded and creamy. It’s elegant and flavoursome at the same time, offering terrific drinking" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2020

A brilliant yellow gleam with flickering green lights in the glass, Estate Vineyards Chardonnay ’18 has an immediate aroma of bright lemon blossom, ripe white peach and pineapple. Summer fruits unfurl with weight and texture alongside popcorn, roasted cashews, and a floral lemonade-and-tonic character that builds to a long, fine finish. Estate Vineyards Chardonnay ’18 is simply delicious. This wine will continue to evolve in bottle for two to four years from harvest.

Food Pairing: Partner with scallops, simply prepared, at sundown.

Alc: 13%

3 x Te Mata Estate Vineyards Hawkes Bay Syrah 2018

AWARDED 93/100 POINTS & 5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2018

"The palate is focused and beautifully weighted, delivering excellent fruit purity backed by fine texture and flowing mouthfeel, leading to a persistent silky finish. Elegant and stylish, this gorgeous syrah shows bright fruit characters of raspberry and Black Doris plum with nuances of violet, black pepper and anise" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2018

Deep red with a bright purple edge, Estate Vineyards Syrah ’18 has an incredibly inviting fragrance of dark cherry, raspberry, vanilla and allspice. The palate is immediately fullflavoured; a celebration of fresh boysenberry, blueberry, mocha and fine tannin that extends to a long and satisfying finish. With an exquisite level of detail and finesse, Estate Vineyards Syrah ’18 is the perfect addition to any occasion.

Food Pairing: It is a wonderful accompaniment to all red meats, savoury and lightly spiced dishes of Mediterranean cuisine, as well as soft cheeses.
