Craggy Range

Te Muna Road Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc 2019

8.7

Good Sauvignon Blanc from the Southern Island. Delicate bouquet of gooseberry, kiwi, lemon zest, lime, grass, flint and quince. Well balanced, time spent on lees made it round and soft, though for my personal taste it lacks acidity and feels a little tired. — 5 years ago

9.0

Beautiful blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Thanks to spending 8 months in old oak and on lees, it gained attractive notes. Oil, brioche, cream, lemon juice, marzipan and pear. It is much more powerful than I expected, but it is still so fresh and juicy, so easy going, so delicious! Long aftertaste, with flavours of brioche and lemon. Great. — 5 years ago

I think all their red wines have something interesting (gamay, PN, pineau d’autos) I drink very little white wine, because I don't digest, but they have a lot of charm too

8.7

Delicate bouquet of cream soda, red apple and apricot flowers. Good mousse, medium+ acidity. It is simple, it lacks complexity, but well made and delicious. Cosmic value, at last something except for mediocre Cava for this price. Everyday drink! — 5 years ago

8.6

Opulent, bright and celebratory bouquet - yoghurt with passion fruit, gooseberry, lychee, bubble gum. Simple tropic bomb, but tasty and well balanced. Love green touch in the aftertaste. Great alternative to Prosecco bubbles, just different profile and more honest. — 5 years ago

Very nice Muscadet (aka Melon de Bourgogne) for €10. Obviously spent some time on lees. White fruits, pear, toast and grass. High acidity, creamy palate with flavours of white plum. It's plain yet good.

9.2

Expressive and sophisticated bouquet with benzene notes, Jerez, nuts, tilia honey, slightly rotten mandarins. With time the nose evolves, calms down and you get green tea with jasmine as a bonus. Multilayered wine, with long jerez-like evolving taste, flavours of green almond and yellow fruits with benzene. Great wine, wonderful QPR, shame it's not available anymore.

9.0

Ephemeral and sophisticated bouquet - strawberry stew, animal notes, forest floor, and burnt matches (in a good way, somewhere on the background). Light bodied, quaffable and delicious, perfectly balanced with flavours of wild strawberry with great VA touch and long spicy finish. Beautiful. — 5 years ago

9.0

Elegant and sophisticated wine. Yellow fruits, nuts, quince jam, benzene notes and tilia with some bakery hints. High electric acidity, well balanced, has lots of power and potential. It's almost ready to kick me in the face. Long aftertaste with flavours of tilia honey and green apricot. Young yet delicious!

Consistently great winery. La Butte is delicious and easy going expression of Gamay. Bouquet full of strawberry, spices and wet wood. Well balanced, fresh with soft tannins. — 5 years ago
