Opened prior to service. The 2024 “Coleriane” positively slaps! The wine pours a ruby/purple color with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity and moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with currants, blackberries, tobacco, Anaheim peppers, purple flowers, inorganic earth and fine baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long with limestone minerals. This is fantastic and built for the cellar. A special wine. Drink now with patience and through 2054. — 2 days ago

Spicy, fragrant, this is richer and fatter than the Italian Pinot Bianco, but lacks the depth and complexity of that wine, still a quite fine Pinot Gris from New Zealand!! — 5 months ago

Rieslings from around the world tasting. My first Riesling from new zeland was incredible. This was the cheapest of the tasting but voted the best. I normally hate strong petroleum notes but it was integrated with the fruit and other flavors so well. Old vines, organic, and biodynamic vineyard. — 2 years ago

As organic as it gets … Pure fruity homemade goodness with high tannins and acidity with a long sweet smooth finish . A faint touch of sizzle. it needs to breath a bit. Serve 15/17 C … Great find. Honest wine …It does taste like guilty kisses. — 5 years ago

Deceptively simple?New Zealand syrah with a cool climate DNA. Waiting for day 2. And day 2: better, fuller, lovely. Smooth & velvety texture are the bywords.

Totally love Gimblett Gravels Reds & this is one of them. Beautiful array of dark berry fruits, dark chocolate, a spec of bakery spices, a dash of savoury goodness and fresh silky tannins. — 7 years ago
