Ata Rangi (Martinborough) 2021 Pinot Noir

99 Points — Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
97 Points — Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous
95 Points — Erin Larkin, The Wine Advocate
97 Points — James Suckling

Winery notes:
Early season frosts and cool weather during the flowering period resulted in low bunch numbers that were open and small berried. As a result, 2021 is a small yielding year in terms of quantity but concentrated and seamless in terms of weight and tannin. Weather conditions for the rest of season were kind and enabled us to harvest clean, impeccable fruit with ripe seeds and bright acid. Made from only our oldest pinot noir plantings on the Martinborough Terrace, this wine is the best of six small vineyards all within 500 m of our winery. The result is a complex, elegant wine, beautifully perfumed in the classic Ata Rangi style. 

Ata Rangi (Martinborough) 2022 Celebre

Ata Rangi (Martinborough) 2023 Crimson Pinot Noir

Winery note
"20 years ago we named this special Pinot Noir “Crimson” in support of Project Crimson, the charitable trust working to replant and preserve native red-flowering pōhutukawa and rātā trees throughout New Zealand.

Crimson is our selection of parcels from younger Pinot Noir vines from our various vineyards on the Martinborough Terrace. In their youth, vines tend to be more fruit expressive, gaining more complexity around 5-25 years.

2021 was a very small yielding vintage resulting in wines with intensity and concentration. The small compact bunches gave a wonderful blend of bright fruit aromas and more dark seductive notes of dark cherry, thyme and mulberry. The palate opens to more savoury notes of soy, tahini and burnt orange, which gives a depth of flavour. Combined with fresh acidity that gives energy and fine tannins that drive a sustaining finish. Only small quantities made, our Crimson 2021 shows the structure and drive of a small vintage in Martinborough."

Barren Rock (Central Otago) 2022 Pinot Noir

5 Stars & 93 Points - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Our famous 5 Star Central Otago Pinot Noir is back in stock and looking fine!

This quality of Pinot Noir at this price is hard to beat. Bramble, spice, doris plum and rich ripe red fruit aromatics. A delicious fruit driven style having a rounded palate of cherry flavours with a hint of chocolate and spice followed by a mineral, elegant palate showing great density, tension and persistence. Great on its own or shows beautifully matched with duck, venison or lamb.

Bay and Barnes (East Coast) 2022 Merlot

Complete with delicious dark fruit aromas like blackberries and cassis with earthy rhubarb notes, complemented by sweet oak. The palate is elegant and finely structured with vanilla and plum on the finish. 

Beach House (Hawkes Bay) 2020 Cabernet Malbec

57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Malbec and 5% Cabernet Franc. The varieties were hand-picked, de-stemmed and fermented separately in small open topped vats where they were gently hand plunged and pumped over to aid in extracting the maximum amount of flavour and colour from the berries.

2019 will go down as one of the top vintages of the last few decades. Blackberry compote and cassis flood the nose alongside hints of dried Italian herb. Dark chocolate, spice and a perceptible graphite / tar edge begin to illustrate the depth and complexity of this relatively youthful wine. On the palate the wine is bright and bold, coating the mouth with smooth yet steadfast tannins. Whilst relatively approachable already, this Cabernet blend from the Gimblett Gravels is set to have a long future and will continue to gain interest and complexity well into the 2030’s.

Beach House (Hawkes Bay) 2020 Gimblett Gravels Syrah

4.5 Stars 91 Points - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Winery Note
"2019 was an exceptional vintage right across the board, but the one variety that seems to benefit most from these hot and dry vintages is undoubtedly Syrah.
Our 2019 Syrah was handpicked on April 5th in pristine condition with the infamous ‘dimple’ effect (caused by dehydration within the berries) evident right across the Syrah block. Once picked, the grapes were de-stemmed into an open topped fermenter and left to undergo wild fermentation. The wine was gently plunged and pumped over throughout fermentation to aid flavour and colour extraction. The wine spent a total of 27 days on skins before it was pressed off into French oak barrels consisting of 33% new oak. The wine was then left to age for 12 months in barrel"

Bogle (California) 2020 Old vine Zinfandel

8 Consecutive Best Buy Awards - Wine Enthusiast (2014 to 2021 Vintage)
Awarded American Winery of the Year – Wine Enthusiast Magazine 2019

Winery notes
"For years, Bogle winemakers have sought out vines ranging in age from 60 to 80 years old for our Old Vine Zinfandel. These gnarly head-trained and dry farmed pioneers produce low yields of small, concentrated clusters of fruit, producing incredibly intense and flavourful wines.

Cedar, juniper berry and sweet dried herbs greet the nose of this wine, while focused flavours of dried plums, cranberries and cherries sink into a decadent, plush mouthfeel. Saturated and dense, the wine finishes with touches of licorice and spicy oak from the 12 months in 2 year-old American oak barrels."

Made using premium parcels of Shiraz fruit sourced from three distinct Victorian vineyards, the 2019 vintage yields an aromatic masterpiece: generous notes of berry perfume blended with white pepper and spice. A beautiful complex palate with a long, lingering finish.

This wine would make an ideal partner to crispy skinned duck breast served with kipfler potatoes, broccolini and a black pepper red wine jus. Or why not try it with a spicy Mongolian beef. The Patricia Shiraz is also fantastic with wash rind cheeses.
