Te Mata’s flagship Coleraine Red sells out quickly on release each year. We are proud to be able to offer you their highly acclaimed 2020 vintage.
Coleraine is a Bordeaux-style blend which is made from the winery’s oldest and best plots of vines. It is widely recognised as New Zealand’s top red wine and the only one so far which can truly be described as a fine wine with its own secondary market.
“A blend of 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot and 7% Cabernet Franc. A deeply-tinted, almost inky wine with layers of sumptuous fruit and savoury characters, including cassis, red rose, dark chocolate, hedgerow, anise and nutty oak. A generously mproportioned, youthful red that is already surprisingly accessible but promises to age gracefully.” 98pts Bob Campbell MW
“A beautiful nose of graphite, blackcurrant, crushed stone, blackberry, bark and sage. Medium- to full-bodied with velvety, structured tannins. Linear onto a wide open palate with so much clarity and length. Mineral complexity sits underneath the wonderfully ripened black fruit giving definition and dynamics. Steady acidity. Fresh herbs and black tea. Pine, too.” 97pts James Suckling and one of his Top 100 wines of 2022
“The 2020 Coleraine is seriously structured, dark and spicy, with great concentration and gravitas. The tannins are so integrated and woven that they feel almost imperceptible. This is spicy and resinous and charry, but its fine and graphite and mineral too. Chalky tannins plume through the supple fruit. Very cool. It’s exciting, plush, open weave and sensational.” 97/100pts Wine Advocate
